Actually the term should be Valves cover. It does exactly what the term suggests. It covers the valve-train components. It prevents anything such as dirt and debris from entering the system and keeps the oil that is supplying lubrication to the valve-train from being splashed into the engine compartment.
Please restate the question. What are you talking about? Valve cover gaskets, valve cover, what? need a valve cover
There are valve cover bolts around the perimeter of the valve cover. You want these tight but not as tight as you can get them.
As with all valve gaskets it is located between the valve cover and the head. To get to it you undo all bolts holding the valve cover on and then pull valve cover off. you will find it on the valve cover/ head contact point.
# The PCV valve is located in the valve cover # Detach the hose from the valve then unscrew the valve from the valve cover
it is on the valve cover, usually in the driver side valve cover. If you have a 2.2 L engine, it doesn't have a serviceable PCV valve, it is built into the valve cover.
Remove the valve cover.....scrape off old gasket.....clean gasket surface on valve cover....apply gasket sealent to valve cover gasket surface.....set gasket in sealent.....reinstall valve cover.
Assuming you mean "valve cover gasket", the gasket seals the valve cover to the head so as not to leak oil.
the signs of a valve cover leak are oil on the engine oil is the only thing that can leak from a leaky valve cover
It is in the driver side valve cover, you must change the valve cover to replace the PVC valve.
* The PCV valve is located in the valve cover. * Detach the hose from the valve cover and pull out the PCV valve
If you are asking because of your valve cover leaking oil, there was a recall on that year valve cover gasket.
some models the pcv valve is in the valve cover on others the valve plugs into intake manifold and is connected to valve cover by hose
