The 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport 3.0 liter engine valve cover torque specification is 40 pounds. You do not want to over torque the valve cover bolts, as you may ruin the valve cover gasket.
just tighten it snuggly .it will be fine as long as there is all the bolts in it
Sometimes a leaking valve cover gasket can be fixed by simply retorquing the bolts to their proper torque. If that doesn't solve the problem, the gasket will have to be replaced as per your engine manufacturer's specifications.
Quite possibly a leaking rocker cover gasket. Could try just tightening top bolts slightly as a temporary fix. Or change gasket. When you put the top back on, make sure bolts are tightened evenly to correct torque, or gasket will leak again.
remove the valve cover pull off the valve cover gasket and put new one up making sure you dont over tighten the valve cover bolts make sure you have correct torque replace all the o rings inside valve cover while changing main gasket for best results
Normally oil leaking from the top of an engine is a sign that you have a leak at a valve cover. The cover may be loose or the gasket may be defective. Tighten the valve cover bolts to no more than 5 lb/ft of torque. If that does not stop the leak, the gasket will need replacing.
The valve cover gasket on a 84 Infinity G20 is changed by removing the cover bolts and prying the cover off. The old gasket is removed, the surface cleaned, and a new gasket put in place.
