you need access to all the boltz holding the cover on. any obstruction that wont allow you to get s socket wrench on the bolts. sometime you can get it off when the air flow hose ect... anything that might be mounted above the valve cover. so, remove the boltz first. get them secure some where so you don't loose any. ten try to pop the valve cover lifted off. sometimes the are stubborn and the natural response is the pry harder. all your going to do is bend the valve cover and then not have a valve cover that most likely will leak.
work around the whole edge of the valve cover lifting bits of it at a time, evenly and probably by the time you pry loose about have it should come right off.
the hard part is making sure you vlean the whole valve cover. SPECIALLY where the gasket goes. if you leave any but clean shiny metal you'll have a leak!!!
