Hi all, recently had starting problems with my 2.3 16v, when i took the plugs out they were dripping with oil, does anyone know if there are seperate gaskets around the rocker cover where the plugs are dropped in before i take the cover off to replace gasket
many thanks
jim

Yes, there are two gaskets. One gasket around the plugs and another between the rocker cover 'walls' and the head.
Edit: I assume the layout on the 2.0 and 2.3 are identical (which I'm pretty sure it is)
