Default Help with timimg belt/valve cover gaskets change... did somebody say steak and beer?

Hello everybody,

I am in the middle of changing the valve cover gaskets and camshafts seals in my A4 2.8. The instructions say it is recommended to have a second pair of hands to finish the job. In my case it is not only recommended I need it! because I also need guidance. Can someone please help me to change those gaskets/seals, finish changing the timing belt, putting all together and eating the steaks I am going to grill?

Oh! and drink the beers? If I recall correctly, most of you guys like New Castle, so I will make sure I have them in the fridge.

I live in Beltsville, MD and I can work any day after work or during the weekend.

Thank you!

Default I'm good for either Monday during the day or the following weekend.

But that is provided you line up expert help. I'm no expert. Do you have the cam lock bar?
