Valve cover removal on 996 3.4
Hi
Im needing to remove one of my valve covers in order to get some machining for a modification I'm getting done. Are there any tips to removing bank 4-6 cover.
I assume one would need to remove as much exhaust hardware brackets etc.
Do I need any special tools or take precaution to keep cam shafts from moving or is that necessary?
Also do I need to darin the oil?
And re-sealing the cover, I guess are there gaskets or just sealant like locktite 5900 like the oil pan?
