The question you ask is too involved for a proper answer. You need to go to a car parts store, and get a repair manual for your car. They cost about $16.00 Or, go to a Public Library.
Oohlalajameshunt, reiterate the answer of this statement. I recently just changed a 6 cylinder 1998 Grand Prix 3.8 valve cover gasket. I started at around 8:30 and finished around 2:30 pm, it could have been earlier but performing the repair myself took some time. It involves removing the alternator, serpentine belt, spark plugs, (make sure you number the plugs) check your wires for corrosion, so that you replace them as your replacing your valve cover gaskets. removing the coil rack and brakets also involved in replacing your gaskets. Called pep boys and they wanted 387.66 for the repair. Send me a picture of your engine and I'll resend you a work work picture repair guide. send response to barrywhite855@Yahoo.com
Thanks, James Hunt

∙ 12y agoDrain your oil and change your oil filter but do not refill your oil yet. undo the bolts on the valve cover that is leaking and remove the valve cover. remove the old gasket and clean the valve cover. make sure there are no cracks or anything on your valve cover, if so you may need to replace the cover. fit the new gasket on the cover and put the cover back on. now put the bolts back on the valve cover.
you will want to Google the torquing instructions as well as what order to put the bolts back on. if you over torque you may break your valve cover and it you put the bolts on incorrectly you may not seal your valve cover properly and will still have a leak.
