If you take it off and throw it away, like I did, You must use big oil drain plug gaskets under each of the 14mm bolts.

Bring one of the 14mm bolts to NAPA and they will be able to hook you up with the correct size gaskets.

Just for future reference, these bolts are the problem with oil in the spark plug wells, 99% of the time


ok... so dont you guy think that i got oil over the spark plugs cause of that one #3 gasket... is that right...

cause what i were doing is that.. i gonna replace a new valve gasket with those seals were the bolt holding the valve on place... and i take it apart and i found out that the #3 gasket is crack up n ect... and i dont know whats the name of it... so now i know... so thats kool...

can i do a custom make gasket for those 14mm torx head bolt and not using the #3 gasket... would that be fine... or i still gonna have oil on the head... were the spark plugs at...

sorry for my grammer...
