6038, yup the gaskets around the plugs need to be changed Posted by DeanoD, Nov-03-01 12:08 PM might as well get the whole valve cover gasket kit. Comes with valve cover gasket and four spark plug gaskets(rubber of course).Do not tighten the valve cover too much....use a torque wrench. I would also try and spray a tiny bit of belt dressing while the car is running. Spray this on the power steering belt lightly and listen for the sound to go away. you can also do this with the alternator belt. You are only trying to see if it is a belt making the noise or pulley/tensioner bearings going bad. If it still makes noise, remove each belt and check for the tensioner/powersteering/AC compressor to free wheel with out binding. Also do this with your alternator. Hopefully only the belts are making the noise or just a tensioner pully at worst. | |
