re: Thermostat Cover Removal

I think you're going to have to use a blue-tipped wrench (i.e. a torch) to 
heat the frozen- up thermostat cover, and hopefully loosen it. You can also 
try heating the studs afterwards.

You also might get some reverse twist drill bits (sold by Eastwood), and try 
drilling out the studs.
