How do you change the Oil Cover Gaskets on this Van I can get one side off but the other is a problem. Is there somewhere that I can get a picture or video of this or is there a special tool that will make this easier?

Hello,

No ther are no special tools or an easy way to do it...

You will have to remove the Plenum in order to change the one Valve Cover Gasket.
