Be careful that you do not pull up the coolant hose going into the head when lifting off the valve cover? Mine came off during cover removal, and look what happened!

Lucky, I was able to suck most of it out with a small 2-way pump, and mop up a little more with some paper towels. I then just let the engine run for a few minutes and changed it before heading out.


Oh, and if it comes out, make sure it goes back in all the way because it will definitely leak :P .
