Changing valve cover gasket....

Posted by Wendel on February 02, 2002 at 19:09:00 from (216.154.53.20):

I have a very messy engine on my IH 434 due to a bad valve cover gasket. It leaks oil and it then drips down the side of the engine, just a tad messy. Is there anything else that I need to buy besides the gasket? I've heard of a "gasket sealer" of sorts. Also, is it just a simple process of removing the valve cover, remove the old gasket from the cover/head (making sure all is clean, place new gasket....and then put cover back on? Am i missing anything? Not sure what to torque the bolts to either. Thanks for any heads-up.
