Parts arriving today, its a job I have been putting off for a year now.
The usual weeping down the back of the engine.
Before I embark, and do a full how to including the repainting of the cam covers with the VHT crackle finish red, has anyone got any pointers?
The question are, to use or not to use silicon and obviously not to drop anything into the engine.
Parts are:
198927 Cam Cover Gaskets x2
187706 Plug Sealing Rings x8
Cost from Meridien inc VAT and postage: £81.97
I may do plugs too as they have been in there 3 years/8k miles or should I not bother as the car runs perfectly?
Can anyone give me the correct plug numbers/confirm its: NGK R PMR8B and not those aftermarket Iridium ones I hear so much grief about.
