Avoid prying on the edges, especially around the bottom.  They will leak if
you distort the sealing flange.  Don't use any type of sealant.  New covers
are cheap, as are the bails.  See Bus Depot if you have a damaged cover.

Subject:  valve cover gasket replacement




Hey folks, I'm planning on replacing the valve cover gaskets on my 82
this weekend.  Anyone have any tips or things I should know?  Seems
pretty simple to me.  Flip off those spring clamp things, take out the
old, put in the new.


thanks,




greg.
