I have 3 HRX217 lawn mowers. All the valve covers leak. I am using Honda bond 4. I did it as per the manual. I have did it as the YouTube.
I even used new valve covers.
One way shows putting the sealant on and torquing the bolts. Another shows putting it on and taking it off and waiting a minute.
They still leak.
Anyway, I saw a site where someone used a GSR valve cover (12311-Z2A-000 COVER) and a Honda gasket (12312-Z2A-000 GASKET).
Han anyone tried this or maybe use another process or a different sealant.
Hopefully one of the pros here can answer this.
