Hey guys,
as you can see I have re-uploaded this video applying some more in depth editing.
I believe it should be much more enjoyable this time around!
Thanks for your support!

    Nice mate! I have to change the coils in my missus FG - "Nah, I can do it babe... won't need to pay someone!" frantically searching youtube for tutorials before they arrive. Looks like nothing to worry about, though now I want to paint the rocker cover too haha!

    It's because they come out before undoing the rocker cover bolts once u losen the rocker cover it puts upwards pressure preventing u from pulling them out

    Thank you no bullshit no life story just straight into it now to attempt the same with my pice of shit falcon. Update took it apart replaced the gaskets didn’t fix the problem thinking now might be a vacuum leak but at least now I feel like a qualified mechanic so I’m putting that down as a win.

    Great vid . Loved it ..I'm an XR6 owner too . Mine could do with a paint because it's a 2008 N/A with a plain rocker cover but I'd have chucked the ratchet over the fence getting at that last bolt or two. You have way way more patience than me .

    I might just do this to my BA Rocker cover. Good job. :) You could do with a NEW PCV Valve. AUC 6A666A, You can re use the black elbow as well, just run hot water over it and it should pull off easier then, heat it up again to put it back on the new PCV valve.

    Good video buddy, got a Question 0:30 you can clearly see at the Rear of the Engine the Lift point on it just sticking out from the Exhaust manifold cover, now my question is where is the front one? on previous Barras like Ba and earlier fords it was on the opposite side but at the front just a little back from the top thermostat but its not there, to lift engines out you need to pick up points, can you see anything or know how this is done?

    Danish Zaidi After removing the 7mm bolts holding them in you just need to pull them out, if they don’t pop straight out you may need to try lightly prying them out with trim tools if you have them? You can use flathead screwdriver but run the risk of scratching something.

    If so and you are sure all securing bolts have been removed then you just need to break the seal. If you have access to a wood block and hammer, you can hold the block up to the left side of the rocker cover and hit a few times then alternate to the right side and repeat until it budges. Once it starts shifting you should be able to pull it up and out of the engine bay

    Once the rocker cover has some free play in it be careful as you don’t want to bash it around after that as it could damage valvetrain components inside it
