How do I remove the large bolt holding down the flywheel (B&S, 14.5HP)?

Looking to replace the ring gear. I'm now removing the 15/16" bolt in the middle of the flywheel assembly, but I cannot get it to budge. Any tips? am i doing something wrong? Thanks so much for any help/advice

It's a standard (right-hand) bolt - it's just TIGHT. I use an electric impact wrench (£20 off ebay). Most useful tool I ever bought!

Hold flywheel with one hand, apply wrench with the other. Bolt comes out no problem - up to 120 FT/LBS.
