To get off the cam cap all you do is take out the bolts...then tap it gently with a rubber mallet or the handle of a hammer or something to loosen it. Theres a sleeve on the bottom of the cap that goes into the head...just tap it on each side a few times and it should come off. When you put it back on just hand tighten it...its easy to break off those cam bolts. Good luck.
