Maintenance and Replacement of Valve Cover Gaskets
When replacing spark plugs, it is important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for the correct type and gap setting. Using the wrong spark plugs can lead to engine misfires and poor performance. Additionally, it is essential to properly torque the spark plugs to prevent damage to the cylinder head.
If it was stuck to the cover, smear gasket sealant along the cover flange and upper gasket and leave it to dry for a few minutes.

Cassette Seals


VMQ, also known as silicone, is also used for oil seals, but this is less common because the mechanical strength of VMQ is low and this material has poor wear-resistance This makes it less suitable for dynamic applications, but it can withstand fairly low and high temperatures from -60 °C to 200 °C. Many types of VMQ are also suitable for contact with pharmaceutical and food products, so VMQ is an option worth considering. VMQ oil seals are usually available on request.
