Hello there. I had an injector go bad on me so I am planning on taking off the throttle body and intake to replace it. While im in there, i was going to replace my valve cover gaskets because they are leaking a bit.
I have heard of people re-using the gaskets connecting the upper and lower intake manifolds together. Is this the norm or should i replace them.
What else to I need to get to do the valve cover gaskets other than the gaskets themselves?
So far this i what i have listed.
O rings for each injector (x6) 90301-07024 $2.30
Upper intake gasket 17176-62040 $8.70
Lower intake gasket 17176-62040 $8.70
valve cover gaskets 11213-62020 and 11213-62020 $18 each
Spark plug tube gasket (x6) 11193-16010 $2.40 each
I am planning or removing all 6 injectors and sending them to WitchHunter performance for cleaning and testing.
Here are a few other threads on injector and valve cover gasket replacements
