Maybe a dumb question but I can’t find it discussed in any other threads..
I’m planning to replace the leaking valve cover gasket on my car. A new rubber gasket will be installed along with a couple dabs of RTV in two spots where the timing chain housing meets the engine (where there is a small gap) as per the manufacturers instructions on this engine.
Do I need to change the oil and filter after the job is complete, or is it okay to drive a couple thousand miles before I change the oil?
Thanks.
