thats what i was thinking!?!? if only the valve stem oil seals were as easy to get to as those seals!

and if i read 1 more person call the cam cover the rocket or rocker cover then i will chew my balls off, they are equally incorrect

i think he means the spark plug seals? the 4 seals under the cam cover?

ya the 4 rubber seals that are around the sparkplug holes on the cam cover, is there any easier wy than hackin them ou with a screwdriver? dont want
oil pissin ou if the new 1s aint seatin proberly with bits of the old 1s still in there???

 

[JohnOBrien8]

one thing is for sure i wouldnt go hacking at anything with a screwdriver as far as the inside of engines go!
be as clean and you can giving everything a coat of oil so it will fit with ease!

 

[gerard]

thats the reason im askin is there any otr way of takin them out as they are very solid in there??

Bend the tip of a flat head screwdrive 90 degrees so as you can get it in below there and lever them up. Use a scocket about the same size as the outer diameter of the seal to push the new ones back in. Take the cam cover (just for you Dunc) off before even starting to do it.

are you replacing them? if so then it doesnt matter if they break, you just have to make sure you get all the bits out before u put the cam cover back on
