Unless those nuts were on there fresh, I'd pull the engine. I usually have to 
torch the nuts to get them free, and that's a bit scary in the car, with the 
gas line right there. It also helps if the engine breast plate is removed, and 
that is hard with the engine in place.

Daniel, are all your bolts rust free? Those are a real problem for those of us 
in parts of the world with real winters.
