Default Damn Flywheel!

So far removing the tranny has been a breeze. But now the damn flywheel bolts won't come off. I have a 12pt. 17mm socket on a breaker bar with a 3ft. pipe on the end. The flywheel is not moving, but I am torquing it so much that the motor is moving on the mounts. I have sprayed it about 5 times with liquid wrench and nothing still. Is it normal for it to be on that tight? I don't have air tools otherwise I wouldn't be posting. Does anybody have any tips on how to get this damn flywheel off? I have spent over an hour on it and still nothing!

I have never tried to take it off yet with the motor still in the car so really I only have experience with it out of car. I think some people say go to Advanced or and auto parts store and rent a tool supposedly there is a special one for it but I am not exactly sure someone that has done it in the car will have to chime in to give you a hand on that.

what i did was stick 2 small screwdrivers into the clutch bolt holes (this will hold the flywheel from turning). then i used a 17mm with a 4ft breaker bar. gl

Quick update. Well after swearing at it for half an hour I just finally lost it and started beating the **** out of it. Then hosing it with a whole can of WD40. Then all of a sudden one broke loose and it's all good now. Thanks for the reply's guy's .

Yeah, that was gonna be my next step. But know I have to wait on pro street to fix my order. They sent me a 94-01 acura integra Exedy clutch with my 92-95 civic flywheel. It prolly gonna take a week to get the right clutch. Kinda pissed off right now because my car is off the road and just sitting there. I have been killing time waiting, so I decided to rebuild my starter and alt.
