Front bolt removal help.
Is there a trick to taking off the front bolt that i don't know about? I really need to change the front seal but can't get that stupid bolt off. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I haven't removed that bolt yet but need to replace the front cover gasket.
But on my Probe I used a breaker bar braced against the ground then tapped the ignition switch to turn over the engine (just a second-dont start it). Worked like a charm. If you try this make sure you brace it right direction to loosen it.

Just get a 19mm socket, and a breaker bar, set it against the frame rail, hop in the car and bump it over (just a tad, don't sit there and crank forever!) and that'll take it right off for ya!
