[QUOTE="static, post: 639231, member: 131"] Once upon a time, long long ago, I bought a brand new, Volkswagen de Mexico longblock. It was very shiny. (Announcer:[I] “though it turned out to be complete junk”)[/I] The new valve covers leaked oil. They were warped. Various fancy-ass gaskets from the Volkswagen shop did not help either. I swapped out my fancy new valve covers for some old, crusty (but genuine) valve covers off of an old Beetle. Problem solved. Oh, and before blaming the cork gaskets, tighten the bales first.
