Mine weren't on too tight, maybe 25ft lbs. Broke it loose with a 3/8" ratchet and a small extension. Are you turning the wrench the right way?

You may need to use a breaker bar. They should be snug, but not super tight.

I use an old mountain bike handlebar for my breaker bar. Basically a foot or so long hollow steel pipe.

yeah im turnin it the right way, its just on really tight. But ill get the problem fixed this weekend hopefully, its not really a problem though. Id rather them be on too tight than not tight enough. Thanx for all ur help guys, i appreciate it.

When I take off plugs, or bolts that are tight, I get a wrench on it, and give it a few taps with a hammer. It shocks it off, then you don't have to worry about busted knucles when it comes loose.
