Hi All,
Quick question on replacing left side (driver) valve cover and gasket.
I've got the new gasket and cover, and am ready to begin installation. I've seen varying reports about RTV - so I went and purchased a tube of Ultimate Black (Oil applications) just in case.
Do you guys recommend I go all the way around on the valve cover gasket channel first with RTV and push the gasket into it, and then go all the way around the surface of the head, apply, and let sit for an hour finger tight?
I've also been told that I just need it in the corners where the cover curves upward.
Doesn't matter to me, but I just want to make sure I do it right the first time, being all new parts.
Thanks for any advice!!
