Описание: In this DIY repair video we go thru how to replace a leaking GM 2.2L Ecotec engine camshaft cover gasket (aka valve cover gasket) on both the Chevrolet Cobalt or Pontiac G5 GM models. The gasket failing due to age in this location is the cause of oil leakage in this area. The vehicle illustrated is a 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt LS. However, this camshaft cover gasket replacement procedure will be the same for any Chevy Cobalt or Pontiac G5 in the years this video covers. Also, in addition, the approach and same camshaft cover gasket part number will apply to other GM vehicles with this same 2.2L Ecotec L4 engine:
