Should all valve cover bolts have washers?
When I tighten down the valve cover bolts in x pattern the bolts start to eat into the valve cover. I haven't got near 11Nm yet. Only the 2 bolts that hold the spark plug leads have washers on my valve cover. __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here: BMW E30 3-Series Valve Adjustment (1983-1991) | Pelican Parts DIY Maintenance Article |

Yes. Each rubber seal should have a metal washer on top of it.
