you mean a valve cover gasket i think
you should only change the gasket if you have to take the valve cover off....... you should only change the gasket if you have to take the valve cover off.......
You have a blown head gasket. Remove the heads and replace the gaskets. Also have the heads inspected for cracks.
Bad plugs, or plug wires. Blown head gasket, or burnt valve. If you are loosing coolant with no apparent leak you may have a blown head gasket. Sweet smell at the exhaust is another sign of blown gasket. If none of that applies, replace the plugs and go from there.
I have a 2007 ford escape, replaced a valve cover gasket in August 2012, noticed that i have a small oil leak around the gasket.
how do you replace the valve cover gasket on a 2002 mitubishi lancer
The valve cover gasket, on a 2004 Jeep liberty, can be found by removing the valve cover. Peel the gasket off of the head and replace with a new gasket.
Replace it , meaning the cracked head or the gasket . Neither can be repaired . The head can be repaired if its only warped from overheating by having it surfaced . It is best on the 8 valve or the 16 valve engines to replace with new parts.
Not necessarily, unless you think they are leaking.
Bad plugs or plug wires. Blown head gasket or burnt valve. A compression test will eliminate burnt valve or blown gasket.
The valve cover ask it, on a S 40 Volvo, can be replaced by first removing the valve cover. Remove the old gasket and replace with a new gasket.

No, only a blown head gasket or cracked head will cause coolant to mix with the oil. A leaking valve cover gasket will only cause oil to leak onto the engine block externally.
