Learned this one years ago, R&Ring my Mita engine has given me many reasons to follow the advice. Breaker bar on a 3/8 to break loose, 1/4" ratchet to remove. Sometimes a 3/8 ratchet instead of the breaker bar with a 12 point (not my favorite combo, but sometimes the only way to get it to fit).
Post some pic so that we can help you better on what tools you can use to remove it.
Ratcheting wrench.

He already mentioned using a racket, so it could be a very tough spot.

Are God's gift to mechanics.
I have seen shallow or standard depth sockets made like a spark plug socket so you can use a box end wrench for tight areas but I don't know who makes them.
I have a couple of these too, it's rare that I need them but great when I do.
I want the ratcheting wrenches sooooo bad. But they have to have the little switch that allows them to change direction, or you might get yourself trapped.
U-Joints and L-O-N-G extension??
The pivoting ones aren't my favorite since the switch controls the lock for the pivot, but they've worked fairly well. I'm a big fan of the fixed head ones.
