30158, Valve cover leaking
Posted by trickyrs, Aug-29-02 04:21 AM
is there anyone who is boosting 10psi and having trouble with the valve cover gasket leaking oil into the the spark plug holes.
I eliminated the pcv valve so there is no pressure from the intake blowing into the valve cover. so I am wondering what else it could be

Did you replace your valve cover gasket before?
Our gaskets really aren't the best so something like that is normal.

Yeah it's an easy fix. go to satan and get the Valve cover gasket and 4 of the plug gaskets and fix it. should only take you 30-45 min at max.

try a little bead of gasket sealer in the cutout for the gasket then put the gasket in that should take care of it.
