Make sure you put good pressure on the 17mm socket when loosening, it's not a very deep allen head plug.

The cheapest and easiest way to go is to buy a 17mm hex key cut an inch and a half off the end and use 17mm socket and probably a breaker bar if it has not been off before.

Sears has a short arm 17mm allen wrench for about 9$ that works fine with a cheater.
