Sparkplug grommets and sparkplug lower tube seals

[b3nsonx]

ok, im a bit confused on this. I bought a valve cover gasket set at the dealership, this included the big valve cover gasket, and four smaller gaskets that were round. Where these the lower tube seals or grommets ?

ive already changed this whole set and i still find oil in my sparkplug holes.

Upper SP seals

lower tube seals are thin o-rings not thicker grommet ones

so in my valve cover gasket set, they gave me lower tube seals, right?

[Night Wolf]

you should have gotten...
one VC ghasket
4 upper seals ("O" in shape)
4 lower seals ("O" in shape)

hmm, i dont remember getting 9 gaskets total
there was only the valve cover gasket and 4 seals, im pretty sure
yeah...looking back at my reciept...there's only 5 gaskets,
but im not sure which set i didnt get
327079 QTY x 4 <<that's the one i have installed
what is the name of that one? upper or lower seal?

[Night Wolf]

well the upper ones are made about as wide as the VC ghasket. while the lower ones are like a thin round rubber band

[b3nsonx]

look at the 4 same sized rings under the far right hole of the header gasket. those are the uppers

The upper seals are round but have a squarish cross section and have 3 notches as shown in the picture above. The lower tube seals are mote like o-rings and have a round cross section.
