Help removing valve covers

[BioStroker]

So I'm replacing my glow plugs, and I can't get the valve covers off for the life of me. The bolts holding the valve cover are super tight, and I can't seem to get them to budge. I'm using a regular socket and putting everything I've got into it and they won't move. Any suggestions? I'm about to give up and pay a lot of money to have a mechanic do it.

honestly ive found that they are usually fairly loose......thats kinda strange...

only thing i can say is get a longer wratchet and make sure your using a 6 point socket.....

Definatly, use a long hanle 3/8 ratchet, should get the job done.
