OK.  If the Mercury tool was designed to work with a standard socket handle;  3/8 or 1/2″  then you could use an impact tool.  I think they are made that way but I’m not sure.  Strange it’s on there so tight.  I don’t have the tool myself and have always been able to get by with a pipe wrench or even with a pair of water-pump pliers.  AKA slip-joint pliers. 

PS:  Another advantage of having a strap wrench is that you don’t need a friend around when you remove flywheels LOL….
