How did you guys that removed your valve cover get it off. Theres no remaining bolts and it's just stuck there. Also, the little hose that runs from the valve cover to the turbo, how do you remove it from the turbo? I really got to figure this out beofr5e work at 4

You need a fuel line tool (like you use to change the fuel filter on a Ford truck) to remove the hose fitting from the valvecover. If you have all the bolts off it just needs to be lightly pryed in a couple spots the gasket is all that is holding it on now.

 

Question: Why do you need/want the valve cover removed?

 

He probably wants to powdercoat or paint it. That is what I think.

 

Possibly. That just seems like too much damn work just to do that though.

 

X2. The only way mine is coming off is if I do some valvetrain or cam upgrades.

 

Well, mine has two leaks and needs to be R\R..

 

I tried a fuel line tool, and it did NOT work. Maybe I had the wrong tool though. Its DEFINITELY a PITA though. Some people use screw drivers, but that messes up the hose. I decided to give up and not try any more, lol.
