plasma cutter???

or my only other suggestion is a quarter stick of dynamite
WHOA there hillbillyinOhio!!! Whe are talking about a 1/4" bolt here, not a fishing trip....lol

Another idea is to put (2) 1/4" nuts on, tighten them to each other and then try to loosen the bottom one.......do you know what I mean?

Thats not a fishing trip, a quarter stick just gives em headaches, gotta use half sticks.

ok i got it off but how typical is this: i realized i must ahve left my vise grips in my friends truck but I dont want to have to wait so i go down the block to home depot and buy some new ones. I get home open up the hood screw off the wingnut and the cover comes right off likes it supposed to. Oh well, I need new vise grips anyways. And looks like a new air filter soon too

Nice, sounds like your vehicle is playing tricks on you.
