Valve cover gasket and valve cover Posted by Navid [Email] (#2069) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Navid) on Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:00:40 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I'm trying to get the valve cover gasket to go into place (Elring) but a few of the areas by the twists keep bending out of place (especially near the bolt holes on the bottom left and top right). I used the red anerobic sealant and have it sitting with books on the gasket, but it still bends right out when I lift them up. Has anyone had the issue with the gasket flipping right out at certain points (I was expecting it not to stay when flipped, but to stay flat in position, but this is another challenge yet!)
Another side issue: I notice it is more "rounded" than the original that came out of the car flat.
Finally, here are pics of the valve cover I am not going to clean the cover, should I? Are the black deposits normal (I'm leaking oil it is a 2003 9-5 linear)
