Valve cover removal

[GrandV6]

Did a search and just a few threads came back. But what are some good techniques for easy removal. I use the word "Easy" loosely. But from what I gather the driver cover sometimes has issues with the wire harness having enough slack to lift off the two lower bolts. And the passenger cover two rear bolts (the 2 close to the firewall) have clearance issues with hard water line on the side near the injectors. Watched someone replace covers/gaskets a while back and the person doing it really didnt have any issues. Thanks for any advice

It is a little tricky. Drivers side is easy and you just have to wiggle the harness around. Pass side is just a little tough. Take the bolt out that holds the hard line to the intake for wiggle room. I always take the turbo cover off and then move the valve cover out of the way. You kinda have tow twist it up and around the rockers Putting it back on is the tricky part I usually use the right stuff to hold the gasket to the valve cover. Good luck

as per the person you watched...you shouldn't have much trouble.

It also helps to have the rear rocker on the passenger side down for clearance.
