Hi guys,

I've volunteered to change the rocker cover gasket on a friend's 1.8 zetec engine which is weeping oil onto the exhaust manifold. Is this leak common, and has anyone got any advice/tips before I get started?

Thanks

Re-use the collars and dont overtighten the screws or you'll strip the head off them.

Learnt that one the hard way.
