I have a 2006 Bayliner 175 that has a ticking rocker, and I'd like to attempt the rocket adjustment shown in the you tube video, but I don't have a replacement valve gasket.
I also found this video on you tube that is my EXACT same boat, with the EXACT same sound (to a tee):

And after seeing the infamous HowTo rocker adjustment on youtube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAlCVA5cCQM I'm very encouraged about getting rid of this noise (that seems to have always been there since I bought the boat new).
Boat has very little hours on it. I'm wondering: since it appears that the edge of the head that seals against the valve cover gasket is "rough", I', wondering if I could get the valve cover off without "tearing" the gasket and able to re-use it (until I can get a new gasket).
Thoughts ?
