Valve cover gasket replacement Al-210
Operation Description:
Remove valve cover bolts and valve cover. Clean out excess oil. Clean all mating
surfaces. Replace valve cover gasket and inspect interior O rings. Inspect all surfaces for
cracks and deterioration.
Significance:
Over time, the gasket that seals the valve cover to the head assembly wears and
eventually fails. Typically this allows oil to leak from the valve cover, but sometimes the Removing a valve cover
leak occurs in the spark plug wells. If the dipstick is reading low and there's no sign of to replace gasket
oil smoke, you may have an oil leak. One common place for oil leaks is from where the
valve cover meets the cylinder head. #O
Advantage:
Intake and exhaust valves open and close rapidly while the engine is running. This
extreme mechanical activity requires oil for lubrication. All this happens under the valve
cover. The valve cover gasket seals the oil between the engine and the valve cover. After
time and many miles, the valve cover gasket can dry out and crack. When this happens, New valve cover gasket
all the oil flying around inside the valve cover will escape, leaving you with an ugly oil
leak.
