hi guys/gals is it hard to change these or is it worth paying the guys at honda to do it? is it pretty much just take off the rocker cover, swap the gaskets, clean up and put rocker cover back on? or is more than that?
and should i bother with a rocker cover new gasket. i'm short on cash. so just tossing up whether to do this myself or not.


thanks

that's practically it.
simple.
if your gonna change that, might as well change the rocker cover gasket.

so they are fully accessible once the rocker cover is off, i don't need to take anything else off? are they plugged in or are they just sitting in a groove or something?
sorry about all the q's i can't exactly remember what head looks like without the rocker cover on.

yes.
it comes straight off, exactly like the rocker cover.
comes straight off, and it will go straight on.
simple.

awesome! thanks destrukshn, i just gotta remember to do it whens its stone icy cold, i've have too many breaks/replacements for this little engine.
i don't suppose anyone here can source all the spark plug and rocker cover gaskets these for less than 70 bucks?

go to honda, it's about $80ish or something for a full rocker cover gasket kit

and you don't have to wait til it's stone cold either.
