17312, need help w/ valve cover gasket
Posted by joshacu, Mar-13-02 02:53 AM
I'm gonna change mine because its been leaking around the spark plugs, i have searched and found that you need the main gasket and 4 plug well gaskets. now i'm just wondering if there is anything hard about it. or if its easy. also does anybody know what the torque specs are for all the bolts? thanks guys.

get some blur rtv silicone too

put some in each corner and on the cam sensor seal

just unbolt the coil pack
and then unbolt the vc.. 8mm deep socket you will need

clean it up really good and put the new gasket and spark plug gaskets in

tq specs on VC is 1-3lbs
