Default Need to remove valve cover

This may be a stupid question, but can I remove my valve cover with no problem or do I need any gaskets or anything? Thanks.

It's recomended that you change the valve cover gasket everytime you break the seal.

Most people will tell you it doesn't matter and not to do it unless you see a leak.

HTH.

hmmm.... Well I don't like to take chances with the engine but I guess I'll do it and see. If it leaks I'm within walking distance of an auto parts store. Thanks.

I probably will. I don't wanna run the risk of messing something up just save a few bucks.
