I'm trying to separate the sump on my IO-360 and it won't budge. I'm pretty sure I have removed all the nuts and bolts (20 places total). Any suggestions on how to unstick this thing?

IF all the bolts are out and nuts off the studs, hit it with a rubber mallet.

they were... I didn't wanna get too aggressive without checking for other ideas. What made it pop was I put nuts back on studs, flush with top of stud to give me a larger area, then a block of wood, and then the mallet. Came off after a little arguing.

Thanks.
