Two years ago, I found that the area above the booster pump was a little moist. It might be the oil leakage, but I wasn’t sure if it was the engine or the booster pump. After washing the engine shell with a cleaning agent, I used 5W-30 imported Sheng-brand oil with a viscosity slightly higher than the original. The problem was much improved. However, during the early annual inspection, those sons of bitches violently inspected the car and the engine was running at high speed for a long time. After coming out, I found that the oil leakage was much more serious than that two years earlier!

The oil leaks down along the position of the booster pump
This time I observed carefully. It is very likely that the valve cover gasket is aging and leaking oil. I plan to buy two bottles of sealant and remove the valve cover and apply some glue to replace it.
Remove the glue immediately after receiving it. It is very simple. It can be done with two tools, a 10 wrench and a 10 sleeve. First cut off the negative pole of the battery and then remove it
Continue to remove it. After removing all valve cover screws, find a one-way screwdriver and slowly fix the valve cover from multiple angles.

Poor early maintenance, a lot of sludge
It had been 500,000 kilometers for the first time. After taking off the valve cover, something unexpected happened. The rubber pad of the valve cover had been severely aged and broke before it could be taken out, and it had lost its elasticity.
In this case, it is impossible to put it back. Look for accessories online immediately

We found the parts, but the seller said he wanted to order and sent them after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Because I need to use the car every day, I can’t wait so long. I called a friend to find it at an auto parts store dozens of kilometers away.

I found it a few minutes later. The boss was very honest and said it was imported silicone and the price was reasonable.
The mat for a 6-cylinder car is about 100 yuan. I asked a friend to buy a pair of mats for only 90 yuan. After buying them, he immediately drove dozens of kilometers and delivered them to me. What a good person.
It’s almost 100 kilometers away. It takes him more than an hour to get here. During this time, I have cleaned up all the things I removed. I can put them back as soon as he arrives.

I installed it back in about 20 minutes. I have strong hands-on skills! Although there are no torque wrenches or other professional tools, I can guarantee that this place will not leak any more oil in 5 years.
