Q:I need a valve cover gasket replacement because mine is leaking a tremendous amount of oil. The mechanic says it will cost about $269.00 plus tax. I wanted to make sure this figure was the average since I do not know a lot about cars. My car is a Mitsubishi Diamante 2001.

The gasket set is probably $ 20, so double that to $ 40..... 270 - 40 is 230, divided by 2 man-hours, which is the usually dealership minimum, gives $ 115 an hour. I DON'T THINK SO !!!! Unless you live in Hawaii where everything is expensive, that sounds steep.... real steep. Dealers around here get like $ 85 an hour, so two hours is 170, plus 40 is 210 bucks; Still killer money for the dealer..... I'd question that estimate ask if there is some extraordinary challenge to working on your car. It is possible there are accessories mounted over the valve cover that will have to be moved, or that's it's a canted V-6 with one valve cover tucked up against the fire wall. Be nice, smile, ask questions.... Maybe even have someone show you what has to be moved on your engine to get at the valve cover(s). If you're going to pay that much $$$, you should learn something, also.

Q:Butterfly valve D71X-1.6C, DN50, there is no difference between C and no C? What do you mean by "concrete"?

D stands for butterfly valve. 71 represents the clamp type, X represents the sealing surface material, and 16 represents the valve to bear the pressure 1.6MPA, C position is the valve body material code, omitted to represent gray cast iron valve; C represents the valve body material is carbon steel.

Q:1988 volkswagon cabriolet, rabbit tried mystery oil let sit for a week having trouble with stuck valves even taken a wrenrch to manually unstick. help any suggestions 4 cyclinder car has been sitting up for about 4 years

The only reason for a stuck valve is if it bent from a thrown timing belt. Sitting 4 years will not cause valves to stick usually, because there is always some oil leakage from the head, that prevents rust. How do you know the valve is stuck? Have you done a compression test, checked the valve clearance? When you say you take a wrench to manually unstick it, it would help to know what you mean, because there is no place to put a wrench that would help unstick a valve that was stuck. You need to tell us much more.

Q:For whatever reason, Mazda has made it next to impossible to change the PCV valve on the 929. I'm going to have to pull off the plenum and the passenger's side valve cover to replace a $2.00 PCV valve. Before I get too involved, I need to know the torque specs for the valve cover. Also, any other tips on this process would be greatly appreciated. Can I reuse the old valve cover gasket if it's still in good shape? Should I use any kind of sealant in addition to the gasket when I put it all back together? Thanks in advance, by looking at this motor, I can tell I'll have my work cut out for me (for a friggin $2.00 PCV valve, it's usually SO simple!). Like I said, any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Q:What's the difference between a clip type turbine butterfly valve and a flanged turbine butterfly valve?

The clamp and flange are the two connections.The clip type is cheaper and the price is approximately 2/3 of the flange.The length of the clip type valve bolt is longer, and the requirement of construction accuracy is higher. If the flange on both sides is wrong, the bolt will be subjected to greater shearing force, and the valve will leak easily.

Q:What's the difference between D71X-16 and D71H-16 butterfly valves?

D71X-16 and D71H-16 butterfly difference is that the cut-off is not the same, the latter is stainless steel seal, corrosion resistance, friction, acid or impurities can be medium fluid. The former is rubber sealed, only through the general temperature of the medium, not acid, with more, you can ask Luoyang crown Ning
