Ok, I know this might sound silly, but I can't get one of the valve covers off! Actually, it's just one screw that I can't get out, because I can't get to it. It's the one at the front of the engine, right by where the dipstick tubing runs, as well as the water pipe. Both are in my way, and I can't figure out how I ever got it on or off before (I did a few years back, but heck if I can remember how I did it). Any tips?

Hehe. I finally got it. I put a nut driver in between the valve cover and dipstick length-wise and pulled it toward the front of the engine, and basically bent the dipstick tube up. Made me real nervous to do that, but I just couldn't figure out any other way. Got the last valve screw tightened on, and all is good now. Bad damned if I know a better way.
