Valve Cover Issues

Hey Everyone,

I am new to the forums, i have owned my explorer for a little while now.

I need a little, looking into new valve covers, and gaskets mine are leaking big time and I am really wondering if any one could tell me where i can by the valve covers them selves other then the dealer cause they want a fortune.

I would like to get chrome one if available

thank you

i will post up picka nd mods later

Are you sure you need to replace the valve covers? Mine were leaking like a sieve, but it was only because the old cork gaskets were rotten. I replaced them with felpro perma dry plus gaskets that are made of plastic and silicone, and they haven't leaked a drop of oil since.

i did my valve cover gaskets about 3 years ago to fix the oil leak. it worked like a charm to fix it, though it has started a little again. as for chrome covers who needs those when you can buy a can of black spray paint at wal mart for a buck
