Default A/C tensioner pulley lock-nut frozen...

I've attempted to break that sucker loose several times now and just can't get good leverage. Does anyone have a trick for getting that belt off without taking out the fender liner?

I still haven't sprayed it with any penetrants, since I had nothing available at the time. There isn't enough room for a socket and driver in there so all I had was a short 14mm wrench- even that is tough to manuver in there. Any help is appreciated!

Penetrating oil or lube helps - get wrench on there and use a nice big cheater bar

Yea, I figured. I have a small cheater bar, but it doesn't fit around the wrench I have. I'll have to a bigger pipe or a bigger wrench. Thanks, tho.
