Valve adjustment Part 5: valve-cover and gasket installation, engine reassembly, startup, and oil-leak inspection.
I reinstall the Concours 1400 valve cover and restore the engine components needed before the final bodywork goes back on. I cover inspecting and positioning the valve-cover and spark-plug-well gaskets, sealing the required areas, reinstalling the cover and related components, and checking the engine for oil leaks after startup. I include practical tips for keeping the gaskets seated during the tight installation.
