Re: Rear Valve Cover Gasket Replacement

Wow, thanks for the update! I would have never assumed that it would be that big of a PIA to do that repair... Mine show no sign of leakage at 143K mi. I am knocking on wood as I type this!

I have been there though on those repairs where you think it should only take you 2 hrs., and it takes alll day. It especially bites when it is due to poor design that led to the failure, and bolts an other fastners that are impossible to get at.
