I equate 'bucking' with violent. Sounds like spark. If oil is in the wells that'll do it. The valve cover set is easy and includes all those gaskets. Maybe the RTV didn't hold. It isn't expensive, the kit.

I had oil in the wells and mine would run ok, just wouldn't start sometimes. The valve cover gasket kit solved that.....can't remember where I bought from though. The oil makes the spark plug boots expand and swell up. thus loosening and not making a good connection. They should just snap on. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the threaded bit.
