Help (Silly Feeling) Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Palf70Step** · 05-24-2004, 08:15 PM

I have an oil leak on the 82 on the back of the valvecover (250 6 banger). As I set looking at this thing today, it just really dawned on me (OK I slow at times) that there is a lot of pipes (red arrows) connected to this valve cover that then bolts to the manifold.

Does this thing still come off normal like or do I have to undo all these dang tubes from the manifold?

Thanks folks!

Don't know but that this has more pollution control than my 2000 Pontiac & Hyundai put together, I'll even toss in all the vacuum lines on my truck and you still have me beet. This musta been ordered with the extra polution control option.

I think that was pretty much all them with the in line 6 those last few years they offered them. I think they were too chep to figure out how to go EFI on the inlines, so they swapped to the V6 a year or two later. It is a mess aint it
