Valve Cover Crack
Hey just realized that i have a dime size crack in my passenger side valve cover. Also my engine is running rough and i am having a misfire in cylinder 1 could any of this be related. I did just do an EGR delete and i haven’t tuned the car yet so i was assuming the misfire was coming from that but now i wonder if it could any way be related to the hole in my valve cover?

holes in engines are never a good thing.. is there any of the crack missing.. IE did it fall into the engine.. id go get a new valve cover asap.

when you do an EGR delete aren't you supposed to drill holes in either side of the valve cover and filter them to allow air to enter and leave as the pressure changes? i could be wrong on that as i haven't looked much into EGR delete. id wait till someone more knowledgeable on the subject says something.
