My vave cover gaskets are leaking so I thought I would replace. When I removed the valve covers, they seem good, albeit a little brittle. Is that a sign they need replaced? Any prep I should do to the mating surfaces? The old ones seem to be glued into the valve covers - what should I use to seal them?

Replace 'em if they're brittle. Use Gasgacinch on the cover and the side of the gasket that amkes contact with the valve cover. Let them air dry for 5 minutes before slapping them together. NO sealant on the head side of the gasket! The Cap'n
