I'm trying to replace the fuel pressure regulator on my VG33E. Does anyone have a trick for getting the screws out? They are on the back side of the engine, less than 3" from the firewall, and they are pan head head philips type. The metal is almost as soft as lead, and it feels like they are welded in place. Any suggestions?

Figured it out. Crowbar between the firewall and a shorty screwdriver did the trick. Replaced the screws with stainless hex-head, but hopefully I never have replace that thing again.
