valve cover gasket

[Go4broke]

I think my driverside valve cover gasket is leaking, how hard is it to change and were would I get a new gasket. I have the car under warrenty and I think is is covered. I have a $100 deductible should I take in to get fix or do it myself?

A new gasket costs $6.00. You'll have to remove the ignition coils & module, EGR valve w/manifold, and the corner lift bracket. It really doesn't take long.

Just remember ... don't over-torque the bolts!!!

You should get the SLP Roller Rocker package while your taking the value cover off. All you would have to do it take the other valve cover off. ;) Best mod I've done so far. [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

yeah that would be nice to have rocker arm package but I don't have the money for that right now. what about the fuel lines do I have to disconnect thoughs?
