      @@HOWTODIYwithEddy it took a hour as I didn't want to rush had to scrape old silicone off but all in your video helped me through the process. Although the E8 hex was too small I had to use E10. But glad I watched your videos a few times. Thank you

      @@AviationTwid I am glad you did your self and saved quite a bit, i believe its a bit expensive the quote given to you, but whatever the price a garage has overheads to pay, so they will be always more expensive than you buying the parts and do it yourself. Some jobs are more specialised than others but this one is quite simple and easy to do.

    Great video but be aware the rocker cover bolts are probably E 10 HEX and not E8 just bought this size and to small

    Hi pal I have put the gasket on with no sealant but is leaking do you need sealant

    • @HOWTODIYwithEddy
      @HOWTODIYwithEddy  2 года назад +2

      you need to see if the rocker cover is broken, you don't need sealant, also make sure the torque is right

    how to judge the same torque on all bolts whilst tightening? what does it mean by 8NM? I need to put the cover back on mine and want to be sure of this

    • @eduardopinheiro644

      You need to use a torque wrench and set to 8 Newton meters
