Hey guys....

I have a 3.0 cl... Well today I smelt oil, I looked on the backside of the motor and noticed oil coming from the valve cover bolts. I decided to tighten the bolts !

Well I broke a valve cover bolt off in the head... I know I have to take the Intake off the motor to get to the valve cover and the drill the old bolt out...

My question is what gaskets will I need when I take the valve cover off? I Know I will need the intake manifold gasket... anything else comes to mind?

Thanks in advance!

you may not have to drill it out, you may be able to take a punch and tap it out far enough that you can get some vice grip or something on it and just unscrew it out

 

I agree with Po401, but PB blast it like a day before, let it soak and it should help.
If you cant tap it out, you can buy extractor bits that will help get stuff like that out.

 

Thanks for the info...

Just found out from Acuraoemparts the valve cover bolts are on back order....

 

don't really have anything to add but just noticed my post count and wanted to get that number to change

 

have you called local honda/acura dealers to see if they have any already in stock?
