Any tips on replacing the passenger side valve cover gasket on a 1970 GS 350 with A/C would be appreciated. At first glance, it looks like the top A/C bracket and alternator need to be removed, but just making sure.
Has anyone luck removing the screw on the passenger side valve cover, more so the last one on the under side close to the firewall, its a pain to get to and the last one any!! Pics enclosed any help or thoughts will be greatly appreciated!! Thanks
Thank you both ive tried both regular and deep well with the swivel just camt seem to get it, its at angle that wont give. I cam only imagine the torture trying to reinstall lol but again thansk I'll try again tomorrow
Thinking back about 25 years, I believe I had to disconnect the passenger-side engine mount and rotate that side of the engine up a little to get a good grip on the bolt and remove it without damaging the A/C housing the first time I R&R’d the valve cover.
stick the long socket on there with the swivel then use a long extension on a angle as far as you can go to break the bolt loose then stick the ratchet on there to finish.
Reconditioned valve covers a few months back. I used the deep socket, flex joint, extension and ratchet solution to access those fasteners. It went back together more easily than it came apart as I recall.
