1985 Ford F-150 - Valve Cover Gaskets

Ford F-Series Valve Cover Gasket Set

Valve covers keep oil inside the engine of your Ford F-Series while providing access to the valves and rocker arms. The covers are sealed with a valve cover gasket against the cylinder head. When gaskets wear out, they may become brittle, shrink, or break, causing oil leaks. When oil leaks from the valve covers, it typically lands on a hot engine part, such as the exhaust manifold, and causes smoking and the smell of burning oil. Oil can also leak onto the spark plugs, which may cause problems with ignition. A buildup of grime on the engine could even pose a fire hazard. If your Ford F-Series truck needs valve cover gaskets, O'Reilly Auto Parts carries the right valve cover gasket set, which contains all the parts you need, to do a full repair to your Ford.
