Pedal Removal.

I'm trying to remove the pedals on an older Nishiki, circa...maybe mid 80s. There is an allen key, probly a 6mm, on the inside. I tried to remove the pedals on the outside using a proper 15mm thin blade long wrench. Probly 14inches long. So I had plenty of torque. I was trying to remove them in the correct direction. Oh, and I squirted some WD on the threads and tried a while later, and still nothing. I'm not sure if I would have much torque on a little ole 6mm allen key.

Is it possible that the allen key is some sort of lock that needs to be released first? I'd like to remove them myself. But it is seeming 9impossible.

My next step is to take it to a shop. But I don't know what they might do that I have not already done.

Thanks in advance for any help.
