If you are mechanically inclined, and have some basic tools you can do this yourself....I would recommend that you first go to Autozone, or Advance Auto, and buy a repair manual for your car...Haynes or a Chilton manual. Make sure you get the right one for your Year of vehicle.

While there pick up a valve cover gasket set,,,and some Permatex sealer.

If the Rocker Arm is loose you may just have to torque it down...

If you feel unconformable with this....then I would strongly suggest you take it to a trusted Mechanic.

Good luck and good Repairing....any further help please advise.
