Trust me, these cars are built with the home mechanic in mind. VERY well engineered and easy to understand. If you can change your own oil, you can easily change the valve cover gasket!
DO IT!

are you kidding? lol the valve cover gasket is easy in any car, but pulling the fuel tank is becomming a pain in my arse... gota pull the exaust and the shaft and everything... sorry just frustrated with it lol
rember these rules of thumb, dont overtighten(get a haynes manual) and tighten the bolts across from eachother little by little untill tight enough
goodluck
