ozzy Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 So i did the passenger side with no problem, what parts are needed for the Driver side, and how difficult is it to do it? does anyone know the name of the gaskets, one of my mechanic friends something about a plemmel or something i didnt quite understand him, but i figure someone here would know what parts are needed and if they need to be special ordered. thanks.

Cuong Nguyen Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 You will have to remove the upper intake to get to the driver valve cover. Upper intake = Plenum... I just reused my gasket. You may just buy a new one, but mine was reusable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriskaw440 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 yeah you have to remove the plenum to get to the drivers side cover, the gaskets are rubber and "snap" into place around the underside of the valve cover....pretty easy to do. I think I paid about 20 or 30 bucks for a set from O'reilley or autozone a while back.....when I did my knock sensor job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unccpathfinder Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 you can get to almost all the screws I bet they just need to be tightened down...mine was leaking bad from both sides and all the screws had backed out almost 3 full turns...I tightened them down by what I could get to and no more leaks...but its about a 2hr job or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriskaw440 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 true it may just be the screws being loose....I periodically have to tighten mine down a couple of turns. sometimes you can get creative with getting to the hard to reach screws on the drivers side....but I think there are 1 or 2 or 3 of them that are next to impossible to get a screwdriver on....
