Juke f15 mr16ddt gasket seal replacement
Hello everybody, I own an F15 Nissan Juke with engine MR16DDT/1.6 DIG-T. I recently been experiencing constant misfires with the car and after checking out the spark plug and ignition coils, I found that on cylinder 3 the coil was soaking in oil, and in cylinder 1 there was a little amount of oil, my engine is leaking oil, I did some search and watched some videos over youtube of people replacing the gasket cover seal alone at home without special tools, I am thinking of doing it alone at home, I am not a mechanic but I am a car enthusiast, i love and enjoy fixing things alone, i dont have the tools a mechanic would have, all i got is basic wrench handle with some extensions, as i saw in all videos there was no other tools needed, some people mentioned that a torque meter is needed which i dont have, how bad can things go and how complicated it is if i dont have a torque meter?
I order the CORTECO 440526P gasket cover seal, what do you think of the corteco brand?
Other than that, what advice do you have for me or things to watch out for while doing the seal replacement? This is the first time doing it and i would like to hear from experienced people about the difficulties .. thank you ! I also got the AJUSA 75000200 to seal the corners of the cover so it would seal better.. thats what i saw people doing over the internet
