I had a bolt on my compressor mounting bracket that some clown installed that was too long and was bottomed out in the block. It would not come out with reasonable wrench torque and there was no way I wanted it to snap off in the block. My solution was to set my air powered impact wrench on the very lowest setting, installed the correct socket on the wrench, and then let it bang away at the bolt. The idea is to let the shock of the impact wrench work it loose not torque. After a few minutes of shocking, I went back to the regular wrench and tested to see if it was coming lose. It took a few attempts but worked pretty cool.
