What's the car? 8v or 16v? I only did 8v's and I have to admit I'm not too good at it. Best advice I can give is to get well documented, don't forget the extra quarter turn on the bolts that wasn't necessary on b-engines, get a torx m16 socket for the bolts. http://www.townsendimports.com/ has good info on procedure, otherwise you may have a bentley book, if not, buy it. It'll pay itself back. Your valve lifter may be the gasket, see my previous post. I also thought it was a lifter, but last weekend I definitely blew my gasket. Amazing how much power you lose. I don't look forward to doing another gasket, maybe I'll take mine to the shop this time. Also there's other work, but that can wait. Good luck!
