Is your 2.0 valve cover gasket leaking ?

Did you check to see if the bolts were loose? ... my bolts were "less than finger-tight"... I can't believe I didn't lose one on the road.
03 Protg, 50k miles.
And of course, I didn't realize this until after I had the new gasket out of the box ( can't return it) so I changed it anyway.

No guarantee that tightening them will stop a leak, but I would want to try before I spend $32 and waste an hour. (rolleyes)
 
The gasket was probably changed before, especially on a 03 with very low miles like that and it probably leaked before. are you the original owner?
