valve covers
I am currently getting ready to change my valve cover gaskets on my 1997 f150 with a 4.6 litter engine. The book looks like it should be a big deal but looking at them it looks like they might be a little more difficult the the book says. Just wondering if any one has change them before and has any input on the project ahead?

There are quite a few parts to remove to get at the valve covers such as the power steering reservoir bracket etc and you have to move wiring harnesses out of the way.
If you take your time and make sure you know exactly where everything goes it shouldnt be too bad
Are your gaskets leaking? It's not very common for them to leak.
