take the ones that will come off, off, and see if the valve cover will come off, something tells me you have a few stripped ones. Its really easy to strip them, the stud i mean, not the cap nut, the stud will strip in the head, because the head is wimpy aluminum.

you have to tap them out. ive done this once before =.=
(tap the screw and reverse the thing out with an oppositely threaded drill bit.....)
but it depends on how it's stripped really...
