It is essential, before installing the new gasket, to clean the seating area thoroughly, both on the cover side and the head side; in this particular model, the valve cover has a groove along its edge where the gasket is inserted: ensure that the gasket adheres perfectly to the edges of the groove, then position the cover complete with gasket onto the head and tighten the fixing bolts with a torque wrench, ensuring perfect adhesion and checking that there are no leaks from the gasket.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
