After doing a valve adjustment on my "loaner" 2.0, I installed the valve covers with brand new cork gaskets. Fired the car up last night and the passanger side cover leaks like someone opened a faucet. Is there a sure fire method to insure the gasket does it's job???
Could my cover be tweaked? |

QUOTE(brant @ Mar 19 2003, 04:35 PM) usually I have no problem.. unless I'm pumping too much extra oil into the motor... we were also getting high rpm pressure at one time.. but seem to have licked that.. b How did you solve the high rpm pressure in the valve covers? I am having that problem with mine. Ed |
