1988 Camery 4 Cylinder

I have tried several different forum sites, and have had no luck with an answer to my question. So I had a member from another site tell me to try here, So here goes:
I have a small leak on my valve cover, and don't see any way to remove or tighten the cover itself, I had wanted to just go ahead and change the gasket, but don't know how to remove the cover, can anyone PLEASE help??

Thanks Steve

Re: 1988 Camery 4 Cylinder

Welcome to the camry forum. The valve cover is held on by large nuts at the top of each spark plug hole. Remove the sparkplug wires for access to them. The 94 manual at the top of the forum will give you a general idea of how to deal with them (its for a 5sFE engine, which is next gen of the 3sFE).

Be careful when you tighten them down. The torque on them is quite small. Get the torque from a reliable source. Try Autozone.com if you don't have a Toyota manual for your vehicle.
