Go to autozone and get some penetrant and spray on it. It'll come right off.

Use a line wrench, that will help it out a bit. If you're not using the line over, just cut it off and use a socket, this way you'll be applying an even pressure over the nut.

If you need anything or a new fitting, please let me know.

IF you can get a set of vice grips on it that will work as well
