Default Spark Plug Tube Seal (pic)

When replacing the VC gasket and the spark plug tube seals, do I need to use the extra grommets?

If so, where do they go? BTW this is for a 96 Accord LX 4 Cyl. Thanks.

cant realy tell what your asking, if your asking about the the rubber guys on the right those should be for the washer for the top of the valve cover. the left ones go into the bottom of the valve cover, maybe start over and re-ask your question

The 4 O-rings (thin ones in the middle of your picture) go under the rockerarm assembly (part that holds the camshaft down) on the spark plug tubes. The thick round (large) circles go under the valve cover for the spark plug tubes. The small round grommets go under the valve cover nuts. And the largest gasket goes on the valve cover itself. There are write-ups on this, but I don't know if I have the links to them anymore. There is a how-to in the FAQ, but it would be better with pictures. Good luck

Just hope everything turns out ok, and I'm happy to help. I had to do this on my 92 Accord. The hardest part is setting the valves. It would help to have 3 hands for that job, and sadly I was forced to do with only two.
