Why won't my 72 50hp johnson start?
You should let the old fuel out and get some new fuel. If it has a set of points for the spark timing make sure they are clean and don't have a spike. Make sure the air filter is clean. You may have flooded it or maybe the other way, not enough fuel. You can clear the flooding by taking the spark plug out and cranking it to blow out the cylinder.
Eliminating prop slap low speed high torque situation
The slip yoke in the back of the gearbox has probably worn out, and or the gearbox mount is damaged. Broken engine mounts can also cause this to occur. The alignment of the Gear box and the Rear axle to the chassis can also cause the slapping of the drive safe under load. If the prop shaft does not have a center support, it is more important to make sure that the shaft and not bent, is manufactured into a straight line and properly balanced, and that all of the that the Uni Joints have not failed.
Need to replace the valve cover gasket on my 2001 seabring and do not know where it is located
So for four cyl model you'll need a valve cover gasket set it should have the perimeter gasket and four doughnut shaped gaskets remove the intake plenum screws 8mm socket and there should be two 13 mm bolts around the throttle body on the back side take note of where the vaccuum lines go for re installaton some motors don't have a manifold that wraps over the valve cover just take off the valve cover and replace all the seals on it and reassemble. V6 models are more difficult and the 2.7l manifold will have to be removed for the repair you should get the manifold seals as well to
The streeing is diffcult when turning
Without more information I can only give you some suggestions. First make sure your tires are inflated properly to the manufacturers recommendation. Have the front end alignment checked, especially the toe in/out. Then check the power steering if you have it fluid to make sure it is filled. Try checking the steering cylinder under the car for leaks. If everything checks you most likely have a bad power steering pump, or the steering cylinder seals are letting fluid leak by.
