Ahhh yes. Valve cover bolts suck. They take like 10 ft/lbs of torque. And they're about $3 a piece from honda. You'll have to get an easy out and start getting the remnants out of the hole.

your problem is the name of your car! I'm sorry, but take the name Jennifer... Every nickname takes on a different attitude.

Jennifer-kind of conservative, well mannered
Jenny-immature, like to day dream
Jenna-kinda moody, very polar
Jen-cocky, just wants your dick

Of course this is just personal experience, but think about it for 5 minutes... It might be right.

So, change the name of your car, and your problems will be solved! :thumbup:
