Where Is The How-To On Valve Cover Gaskets?

[The1One1AndOnly]

Went thru the how to documents and coulden't find any instructions on changing the valve cover gaskets, really need it asap. If u don't have it here and someone has a brief description or a personal manual or link to 1. It be really appreciated thank you.

removed the coil packs and spark plugs. then remove all the bolts on the valve cover.
it helps to remove the battery, air intake, and washer fluid tank

and make sure you got the o-rings that go underneath the cover

Maybe it's not in the "how to's" yet.

By the way how many bolts and seals are their all together, i know their are 6 gaskets, and 20 bolts, i believe, and are they all the same size, or different size bolts. And how many seals, and is it important to get them new or should i use the old ones and should i just get the gaskets and seals? or just gaskets?

Just buy everything I mention in the first post of the how-to and you'll be set!!!! Also you don't need bolts just the washers. NEVER use old gaskets!!! since your already removing the other gaskets you might as well replace the rest for insurance down the road.

yeah thanks red......... i ordered it today 6 gaskets, 20 washers a p/s return hose for the other leak and the o-ring. Total with shipping came out 125. ordered it from a dealership 40 miles away so it should hopefully come by fri. will let u know when im done with it, thanks again for the how-to.

red im not exactly sure the whole leak is from the p/s hose, i know the gaskets are leaking but they leak oil. My p/s flued is goin a bottle a day, the leak is comming from the back area by the valve cover gaskets, its leaking hard but dont exactly know, i though the p/s flued can only leak from the hose?, thought i had it all in my and now im confused, any other places where it may be comming from, or is it something i dont see?
