DON'T just tighten them up!

They should be 8Nm which is very little - otherwise you'll likely damage the camcover.   Have a seacrh on here for cam (aka rocker) cover seals (which you need to change) and breathers (which you need to clean out - the cause of the problem)

Cheers,

Ian

And use a torque wrench! 8Nm ain't much at all...
