it's a d@mm good thing I wasn't paying me by the hour,it took the better part of three hours to change the valve cover gasket's(actually took 5 minutes to change the gasket's ,2 hour's and 45 minutes to move,removeand bend other component's out of the way) What a pain in the #ss , If it still leak's i'm just going to invest in a case of oil... lol

Where did you get your gaskets? What was the part #? How much?

I am replacing the valve covers on my car and I will need a set.

 

87ROCKZ , I got them from canadian tire they are FELPRO gasket's C.T part#17-2514-8 $27.99 plus tx ,there are probably better prices if you look around but they were conveniant for me.
Have fun changing them it's a real P.I.T.A.........SR

 

I would imagine that CT is going to be the cheapest and most convienent anyway. Thanks for the P/N ...makes it a whole lot easier when dealing with the Parts guy at CT. And from what I am lead to believe Felpro makes good gaskets.

I can imagine the fun I am going to have but it's all good

 

Next time won't be so bad -- it will take you about 1/4 the time now that you've figured out the tricks. It could be worse -- you could have been watching TV instead then where would you be ? Bored ?

Unless you have a warped valve cover gasket I don't think you will see anymore leaks.
