So what can you tell me as some look fine and some are pretty gunked up. I run only Chevron 91 octane super by the way. I am going to clean them up and reuse. 6634555-DSCF1205.JPG (82 downloads)

Quote: You need these: gasket set Yess i do some oil like maybe a pint every 500 mies or so. Well then next on the list i will go for the valley pan gasket set i guess as that's pretty easy to do.
