RE: Valve cover
I have a 2250, but i'm pretty sure the info is the same.

1. The gasket is replaceable (I replaced mine just to be safe.) Just make sure the gasket is seated properly.

2. I put a little bit of oil on the gasket before install. Cummins says use soapy water, which seems stupid.

3. I always tighten valve covers in a cross pattern, even if it doesn't specifically say so. Quickserve does say tighten in cross pattern.

4. Torque to 221 in/lbs.
