Valve Cover Gasket
Got to change the front valve cover gasket on my 99 Regal 3800 engine. It is leaking oil right on top of the exhaust manifold. It looks as if I will have to remove the dogbone part of the motor mount to get the cover off. My question is this; am I going to have to worry about the engine shifting or moving??
 Searching the Forum didn't say either way, I'm asking so there are no surprises!! This is my daily driver, I can't afford for this gasket change to turn into a fiasco. As always, thanks for your inputs!!B. Wilson

Re: Valve Cover Gasket
Not really since you will leave the left (drivers) side dog bone engine mount intact so the engine should not shift or tilt forward or backward. I had no problems with that part. The worse part is getting the right aluminum bracket, engine side off to get to the valve cover bolts to remove the valve cover. See pics.
    Note: Autozone Duralast is actually FelPro brand
