Hi,

Hi have the odd drop of oil coming from from one rocker cover gasket. On the side where all the air flow stuff is.

Have ordered gasket kit, and collecting from parts shop later.

• Is it a griefy job?
• Are torque settings an issueon the rocker cover?
• Is this a symptom of another problem?

its a land rover they all leak oil from somewhere !!!!!

need a female star drive socket to undo cover bolts.. i think its recomended that these are renewed after removal but not sure.

not to hard on a gems engine but on athors you got to take of air plenum chamber etc.

It is a GEMS, but I cant see a way around removing the plenium cos its in the way. Does that need a new gasket? My main question is about torque settings. I'm a clumsy idiot and will probably crack something.
