[alfa] Re: valve cover gasket for spider

[TJCallahan@xxxxxxx]

Patrick,

You said the leak started after your mechanic did a valve adjustment job.

Check the washers under the cam cover bolts - usually there are four fiber 
washers and two metal ones. The metal ones are for the rear two bolts and the 
four fiber ones go under the front and middle bolts. The metal ones help put 
more pressure on the rubber half-moons at the rear of the head.

If the metal ones are out of place (which is a common occurrence), the cover 
will leak oil. Don't over-tighten the cover bolts!
