valve cover gaskets

wahoo57speedster Supporting Member

I have always had leaks on my Vintage 2014 57 speedster with 1914 engine. I drove home the other day from gas fillup and saw large puddle on left rear side.. I believe I need to replace the valve cover gaskets. this engine is a 1970 VW, 1914 cc thats all I know. I am new to VW engines, have bought the books and read online info. Question do I put any kind of lubricant to seal the gaskets. I have seen no mention in any of the videos on line. I am going to buy # VS21566C from autozone. I just love this sight, its a great help to a newbie in Sherwood Oregon.
