I have a 2004 frontier with 4 cyl engine. On the valve is a big tube that comes in from the rear of the engine. I cannot get the flare nut loose.It looks to be about
1 -1/8". There's no room to get a turn with the wrench.I can get an open end on it but the side is against the intake manifold.Also it has been on for 185,000 miles.Any help would be appreciated.Am I able to remove the tube from the other end and take it off with the valve and work on it once its out?

You may need a different wrench that is off-set to achieve
the correct swing. Did you remove the BPT valve for more accessibility?

Yes the BPT was removed. I ordered a crowsfoot wrench tonight. It should give me the swing I need.
