    ok got the tensioner off 13mm. then had to take the battery out so the bracket would slide out of the way.

    Got the Valve cover off cleaned everything off and found, at the top of the cover where it molded around the fuel injectors, the material is thin and brittle. This has got to be why it is leaking again. There are rub marks where the injector sits too.

    gonna have to get it good enough until I can get new covers. local auto parts don't have them.

    Any body know a good place to get replacements that are not overly expensive?
