Valve Cover gasket replacement, where to buy?

[jakemeister]

Hello:

I am going to replace the Valve cover gasket on my Contour Zetec engine, as I discovered oil sitting in the spark plug area.
After checking the forums, it appears that the Valve cover gasket is the problem.

My question is does anyone know where to but a valve cover gasket in the GTA area at a reasonable price, as it seems that the major parts places (Parts Source/ CDN Tire) charge $60+ for a simple gasket, crazy?

Thanks for any help, much appreciated!
Jake.

what's the most you're looking to pay?

I might have a supplier that can get it for lower if your interested!

Hi there:

Thank you, I am definately interested in a less expensive price?

In the US, they sell for $18, and here for $60+, go figure?
If you could check, and let me know, it would be greatly appreciated, as I would like to change the plugs/ wires, but cannot because of the oil around the plugs right now!
The sooner the better.

Thank you for the help, Jake!

I'll keep you posted. I called the guy and he'll get back to me tomorrow the least.

Got a new valve cover gasket and bolt seals at NAPA yesterday for $37.70. Hope this keeps the oil out of the spark plug holes. PO304 was an oil leak?
