Honda Repair: 1992 4 cyl accord valve cover issues, valve cover gasket, exaust manifold


Question
I started doing a tun-up. Found oil in the sparkplug well, so I changed the valve cover gasket and the plug grommets. Problem is the valve cover was seeping just a tiny bit on the front drivers side by the exaust manifold. It did not before. So, I snugged the valve cover bolt a tad. A tad to much, I broke the driver front side right off. Where do I get a replacement stud and nut cap? And how hard will it be to change? Also, what can I do if it still leaks? Thanks, Mike

Answer
Mike:
You will have to go to the dealer to get the part. As for removing the old one, you will need an easy out. You use a regular drill to drill a hole in the broken stud then put the easy out in the hole and it should come out as it bites the inside of the stud when you remove.
Good luck.
