Hello,
There was noticeable oil all around the valve cover gasket, but it
wasn't bad enough to drip on the floor to leave a puddle. It was
strange, that after it was replaced, that I would have a bigger
problem. Maybe I shouldn't have used
a aftermarket gasket.
Thanks for the answer. I'm gonna go buy a Genuine Honda gasket and
hopefully
that will solve the puddle problem.
