Use a hair dryer or a heat gun (on low heat), and while the tape is warm/hot use Goo Gone (found at auto parts store or Home Depot), Rubbing Alcohol, or any commercial adhesive remover.

If that doesn't work you need to go find yourself some solvent - call your local body shop or car dealership to find out where you might find some locally.
