When they work on the headlight sprayers they seem to have a hard time getting it back together correctly. I had a body shop working on my front end damage/bumper from accident and it continued to leak after three trips back so I finally gave up on leaking washer fluid and just cut the line under the tank - above the belly pan on that driver's side, and plugged it off, because the sprayers are BS anyway. there are O rings in the lines that are difficult to set back up, I was told.

I was talking to a guy last night that gave me a clue to why my engine was sputtering. He said that the engines have alot of vacuum built up inside, and a leek could be causing that. Now, one of the things they told me was that my valve cover gasket was leeking, but I told them that was something that I could do. My friend said that sometimes that even not having the oil cap on tight, or not at all, could cause the car to run rough because its a big vacuum leek. What do you guys think about this?
