Hi,
        The 13B  comes apart just like Bruce's video describes.  I

bolted a piece

of angle iron the the flywheel  (stick) and broke the front hub bolt
loose.  The flywheel nut will not budge.  Used a 1/2" breaker bar and a

4'

extension with no luck.  Tried a small impact wrench at 80 psi, just
noise.  Any tricks of the trade?  Thanks for any help.

1/2 inch breaker bar is not big enough. You need a 3/4 with a four foot

arm.

Or a large 3/4 impact wrench.

You also want to heat the nut with at least a propane torch. Have done that
in 5 cases, and a friend did it after trying cold, worked every time. Just
don't let it get blue.
