Hi, I'm Mark Blocker. On behalf of the Expert Village, in this segment, we are going to cover the conclusion of replacing a valve cover gasket. Okay, we've had the engine running now for approximately five to seven minutes and it's about up to operating temperature according to the temperature gage. And we visually watched it while it was running and we haven't seen any leaks. And basically if you've got a portable flash light, if you've got dark spots in the back side of the engine where you can't see clearly, a flashlight might assist you so you can see and make sure there are no leaks. But we basically went around and did a thorough inspection and looked everything over and we have no leaks whatsoever after running the engine. Everything works the same. At this time we've got a successful completion of replacing the valve cover gasket. Please watch out next segment on the conclusion to replacing valve cover gaskets and thanks for watching.
