1. Mark your plug wires 1-4 2. Remove your plug wires 3. Take off the 2 to 3 hoses connected to the Valve Cover. 4. Remove the 4 bolts from the coil packs and remove coil packs 5. Remove 6 bolts from Valve cover. 6. Clean up valve cover and make sure no gasket is left over. 7. Put new gasket on and repeat this in reverse for installation. Note: You will have to call Autozone or a local dealership to find out the torque specifications on your valve cover bolts. I usually replace them, but it is not necessary.
