Hi,

If you look below, I attached the directions for the removal and installation of the cylinder head cover. Note there is one bolt toward the front of the engine, you must use sealant on the threads, or it will leak.

The torque specifications are 71-inch pounds. (not foot pounds)

Let me know if this helps.

Take care,

joe
