The operation of replacing the gasket is very delicate and requires special equipment, so it is recommended for experienced individuals. Start by removing all elements above the engine to facilitate the disassembly of the valve cover.

Remove the engine covers, the electrical connections of the spark plugs, the spark plugs themselves, the intake manifold, the timing chain cover, and everything connected to the cover, carefully setting aside the removed elements. At this point, remove all the bolts of the cover and take it off. Replace all rubber gaskets and install the new gasket, ensuring it adheres properly.

Clean the cylinder head thoroughly where the gasket will adhere. Carefully reassemble the cover and all previously removed elements.
