Not too bad.

Sometimes the valve covers come right off not problem when all the bolts are out.
Other times you have to pry a little bit to get them to come free.

Are you replacing your oiler tubes?

hi cudaspaz, i have a question on removing the left valve cover (driver's side). i can disconnect the 2 fuel lines in the back, but what do i do with the 3 plastic hoses up front you see in the picture??? can i lift the cover without touching those hoses? thanks
