I am trying to replace the sparkplug seals on my 97 cobra and I am having a hard time getting the valve covers off. I have all of the bolts removed, and the intake cover off but the clutch cable and brake booster is in the way on the driver side, and on the passenger side the fuel rail and heater hose is in the way. What can i do to make this easier?? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Oops sorry I meant brake master cylinder, not brake booster.

Take the intake hat off and it'll make things easier...

I took mine off earlier this year and the drivers side actually came off easier than the passenger side did...also try taking the drivers side engine mount nut off and jack up that side of the engine a bit...
