Hitting the wrench with a hammer after soaking in a release agent (again, i recommend PBlaster, though the ammonia is an interesting idea) is a good plan. Impact like that can exert huge amounts of torque for short periods of time, which is sometimes just what you need to 'break' a tight connection.

Good luck...

peace,
