DIY: Valve cover grommet install.
If your like me. youve wondered how the heck to put those nice new grommets on when you buy a valve cover gasket kit. Well after this DIY, all the ladies will be lining up to check out your new grommets. Seriously, ladies dig sexy gold grommets!
Time: 20 mins, total (maybe)
Tools needed:
10mm ratchet/socket
Knife or other sharp object.
Some pliers (optional).
Step one: Gather parts and get ready! I will be assisted by my celestlial parrotlet, Goblette
Step 2: remove bolts holding valve cover on. No pic of this, but easy enough! 10mm ratchet does the trick
Step 3: Separate the washer from the grommet.
Be careful not to stab yourself... or the bird...
Or cut yourself... (or the bird)
Now, you might have another way of doing this and thats fine, but this is what I did (obviously).
Step 4: stick new grommet on.
Now, its easier than it looks. You can either shove em on with your hand or you can use the pliers with a 12 mm socket and squeeze em on. Be a man, do it by hand!
St3p 5: reinstall and enjoy your glorious new grommets (and the extra attention from the ladies )
Enj0y!

I've spent too many hours on icanhazcheesburger to not find it really difficult to not give that bird anthropomorphic quotes...
There are way too many negatives in that sentence... sorry... going on hour twelve at work...
Nice write-up!
