Another great video sir! Great job installing the gasket and showing the proper use of Silicone sealant!

The blue gasket didn’t seem damaged. You wouldn’t chance a refit?

Yeah it seemed fine. I already had a new gasket that I ordered. maybe the oil was residual from the last gasket

@@BigBensCarsAndCycles The blue gasket you removed is a Fel-Pro gasket. We (I was Chief Engineer there for many years) don't normally recommend re-using rubber gaskets unless you're really in a pinch. Typically any rubber, over time, will take a compression set and not seal as effectively (due to decreased sealing stress) as a new one. Also, a Silicone gasket, which is what you removed, swells a bit when its exposed to oil so it might appear larger and would not fit the casting as well as a "fresh" gasket would.

When doing the tune up is there anything else you should replace while in there? Is it just the valve cover gasket, plugs and coils?
