Default stubborn cam gears

I saw a posting on here on trouble with getting the cam gear bolts to free up.

My experiance on this is to leave the belt on like most of us already know next if you access have to a 3/4 or 1 inch impact this usally gets the job done , but on occasion that this doesn't work next is to break out the blow torch, use a low temp. tip be careful not to overheat so you dont affect the integraty of the plastic gear ,the heat wont hurt the alum. gear within reason of the operator, with a little finesse and hand motor skill the job is done. Good luck and if I can help anyone out with more tips drop me a line.
