After installing a new valve cover gasket on my John Deere 1050, I developed a leak. It is a rubber gasket and I had some difficulty keeping it from squeazing out from under the cover. When I removed the leaking gasket it was cut by the edge of the vale cover. I installed a new one, and used some yellow weatherstrip adhesive to keep it in place. The new one didn't slip, but it was cut too. The cuts are along the edge of the cover. The cover is aluminum. I'm I tightening the cover bolts too tight? Suggestions anyone?
