Daz.Replacing a rocker cover CANNOT go tits up unless u have a destructive personality and decide to start hitting ur cams with a mallet during the change lol. Then again,i managed to shear a bolt while changing my cam cover,which resulted in extracing the bolt shank using bodge techniques taking half an hour. So the whole cam cover change took ages lol. But put it this way, i could go out to my car now and remove my cam cover,change the gasket and replace the cover in under 5 minutes.

WTF is a bolt shank. You could allow the gasket to sit wrong and it leaks - Thats one thing an amater could do wrong. Either way Jonny got it sorted and for not a bad price

the shank is the main part of the bolt. IE/ not the head the head and half the shank had came away so i had to saw a line in the top of the remaining shank to use a flat-blade screwdriver on it to get it out
