I was puttin on my new valve cover on my h23... I was tightening the middle screw where the spark plug wire holder is, and I over tightened it and the whole thing broke off in the screw. ANYONE know where I can get another one? and how hard it is to put it on... I don't want oil leakin all over my valve cover... pls help asap. thx.
I did the same thing before. Don't worry too much. I would just try to cover the hole with tape and drive to the honda dealer and get a new one. The worse that will happen is a little oil will be on your valve cover. Also you car will probably idle high after warming up. You need a Wrench to take the current one you have in out. Down past where you thread on the bolt there is a hex pattern were you tighten it into the head. So just go buy a new one for a few bucks and you will be all set.
