So I had a coolant leak comming from my fiesta and after alot of troubleshooting I decided it was probably the water pump, I decided to take out the engine even thought it was unnecessary to see if i could find anything else which was a crack in my trans but thats another thing. After replacing the waterpump and taking off the timing belt, starter ect... I got to the reseating my valve cover. It had been a long day and I made some bad decisions ngl, I dont have wifi at the barn I work in so I can't look things up on the fly which would have been very helpful. I decided to use the old rubber gasket and when I put it on I used sealant I put about 1/6in diameter sealant around where the gasket would go I know some people just dont put any on at all which I didn't know that at the time, have I put too much?
I Also stripped one of the valve cover bolts when i put it on I think I'm going to try to do a helicoil i just need the thread specs i couldnt find any.
Thanks, also my spacebar is broken sorry.
