Things always sound easier than they turn out to be. It has been a while since I did this, but to the best of my recollection I removed the two 14mm bolts, then raised the engine up as far allowable. I used either a 1/2" ratchet or breaker bar. I think that on one or both of the bolts I needed to use a swivel or a short extension. The real key was adding an 18" inch piece of pipe that I keep around for this purpose to my wrench. This gives me about a two foot long handle to pull on. If you are using a swivel, make sure that it is braced up against something.
