You start by taking out all the plug wire (do not disconnect from distributor) get you a 10mm socket and ratchet also remove all hoses that are clamp on the valve cover. Then when you got all the 10mm (little) bolts off, use a flat head screw driver and pry where the end of the timing cover is behind the PS pump. Once cover is off gently remove the old gasket (may tear or rip, you want it to come off in one peace) get a razor and gently scrap all remaining peaces of gunk build up. Then do the same for the spark plug grommet's. Also take the razor and scrap the rim of the head NOT THE V-COVER. Apply gasket sealer after your done cleaning. Then simply go backwards in sequence. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE 10MM BOLTS!!!!!!!

I need to replace the bumper cover on a Honda accord 98 EX 4door. is there a site where the screws and pags are?
Most probably, you have a valve cover gasket that is bad, and the oil is dripping down onto the exhaust manifold, and is being burned. Replace the valve cover gasket.
Replace the PCV Valve.
Dear Honda owner, Valve cover leak? I assume you are refering to an external oil leak from the valve cover, replace the gasket, be sure the new gasket set comes with spark plug seals.
Oil on the outside of the spark plugs is caused by a leaking valve cover gasket. Replace the valve cover gasket. Oil on the electrode of the spark plugs indicates the engine is worn and is burning oil. The only fix for this is an engine rebuild.
Remove the sparkplug cables, breather hose, and remove the valve cover. The gasket is a permanent type and comes as a 5 piece kit that simply pushes into groves in the valve cover. Once installed, replace the valve cover and connect the breather hoses and sparkplug cables.
If you see oil in the spark plug chambers in your Accord you will need to replace the vavle cover gasket. Oil from the top end of your engine (camshafts) is leaking through the vavle cover gaskets into one or more of the spark plug wells. Easy fix!!!!
