does these parts have to be bought at honda or can i get them fromkragen/autozone
price range?

[P5ylance]

you can pick them up from kragen/autozone

price for the upper spark plug tube seals + valve cover gasket is gonna be roughly $22-26USD, that's what I remember. Something around there!

Best choice is always Honda cause durability.
But the other one will do also.

I changed my valve cover gasket bout two months ago while I was putting caps back on the front left cap snaps the threaded rod. Is that piece fixed into the block or will I be able to carefully back it out?

you'll see folks telling you not to use felpro...they never can give you a reason other than they heard etc etc


I used felpro on all my cars...no leaks...I say if felpro doesn't work...you messed something up.

Be sure and do both the upper spark plug tube seals AND the lower orings...do not neglect the lower oring seals...I did so I still get oil in my tubes.



why are you replacing ONLY these seals? Usually if the v/c is leaking then it is time to also do the cam seal, crank seals, and generally t-belt also.

x2. If you're gonna do it , do it all at once and get the maintenance out
the way. When you do your timing belt, v/c gasket, tube seals, cam seal, etc..... Don't forget water pump and if you haven't done it in a while the
thermostat. And I'll second the vouch for felpro gaskets. They work just fine.
