I am in the process of replacing my valve cover gasket and plug tube gaskets and i am having a very difficult time getting the old plug tube gaskets off the valve cover...its on a 2003 1.7 liter vtec civic ex. Thanks in advance
 
I know what you're talking about. The last time I replaced some, I had to use a sharp pick as the tube gaskets were hardened. The tube gaskets came off in hard chunks.
 
Take a screwdriver(don't tell anyone) and drive the seals out from the top. Use oil on the new seal to facilitate installation.
