    IMPORTANT:
    • Do not use the valve rocker arm cover gasket again. Install a NEW gasket during assembly.
    • Remove the ignition coils before cleaning the cover in solvent. Do not submerge the ignition coils in solvent.

  2. Inspect the covers (505) for the following conditions:
    • Scoring or damage to the gasket surfaces
