Aye this video helped me out a lot. While i wasn't replacing the head gaskets. I couldn't find any other video replacing all 3 of the intake gaskets, but this one. Thank dude!
I was afraid of starting work on my 2006 because I am currently going through a similar problem with the coolant. Now I feel more confident in doing the project. I have the tools, just need the parts. I am hoping its just the coolant pipe. If not, i'll change the head gaskets. Great detailed video!!
Do the head gaskets on these engines leak externally? Ive got one that is seeping right around the head/rear timing cover area, not sure what it is yet since its so tight in there. Would like to be prepared before we do major surgery. Your observation on the clean vs dirty head is incorrect. This is because of the PCV system.
Looks like one of the head was obviously cracked between a coolant opening, combustion chamber and oil return passage. Never seen that happen on a 3.5. But I looked at a 4.0 (same as 3.5 but longer cylinder strokes) minivan that was obviously puffing coolant into exhaust. I'm betting that's the issue, as MLS head gaskets don't "blow out" the way older composite gaskets do. They're more likely to leak if the surfaces aren't perfect though!
What does this type of labor work usually charge ??? I have a 2005 300C 5.7 hemi with the same issue... I don't want to crush it because this is the only major issue I've had with this vehicle. Great Video by the way too,Man‼️💪🏿
Most of the parts that are most important to visualize for a non mechanic are skipped right over. Its pretty easy to set up a camera on a tripod or you could even zip tie it to the hood.
Will this be about the same guide/walkthrough on a 2.7l Chrysler 300 2008? Will this work on the smaller size 2.7l engine? Any info would be greatly appreciated thanks, and thanks for the video's its really helpful to have! 💯✔❗
Domanic Snowden i can help. theres two little notches at the timing cover and cam gears. the cam gears have to line up with the notches on the timing cover. as for what position the cylinders must be at i believe it should be cylinder 1 has to be all the way up. hope thag helped
Great videos I like your explanation ,I have one question please how can I find out how to torqe the head gasket is it writing in new gasket ore how to know that, please let me know if you could mate.
I have a 2007 DODGE CHARGER with 3.5 Liter motor. I had issues with the car running hot, and i drained the oil and antifreeze. I have changed the radiator and the thermostat. I have changed the waterpump just 6 months ago. There was no mixature in the both chemicals coming from the radiator and the oil pan . I was overdue for a oil change so i changed the oil and flush the coolant system car stop running hot, but i having issues now with the car throwing oil from what seems to leaking on the monitfold on the side where put in the oil . Is the a sign of a blown head gasket????
nice Video good Job now go out and find a Pacifica with a 3.5 and replace the head Gaskets lol. im sure its the same process its the can you do it in the car
Hey bud, is there a huge difference between the 3.5 and 3.6l? I’ve got a ‘12 Dodge Challenger with what I believe is a valve seat problem. Figure I’d take off both heads and have a machine shop resurface everything including the valve seats. Haven’t found a decent video yet that does the 3.6l, if I follow your video will it be close? Thank you VERY much for any help!
Hi there, love your videos, thank you! I bought a 2007 Dodge Magnum 3.5L, timing belt was replaced, marks line up perfectly after several revolutions of the engine by turning the crank. One intake valve on the passenger side middle cylinder appears to be bent, it doesn't close fully. I am wondering how it would be possible to bend one intake valve on a four valve motor. Is this possible? Could it be something else, or do I need to take the head off and replace the valve? Thank you!
Since didn't do driver side do you know or can explain why where cam is there's no room at all to lift out head. The housing is tight around,not a big open circle like passenger side.
I recently did a head replacement and now im trying to start the car the cams seemed very hard to turn when I was doing TDC timing ... I felt like they were too hard to move so how could the timing belt move them?? .... went to start the car it turns very slowly ... I figured it was the battery was down so I connected jumper cables and got the same result....took the battery to autozone got it tested and charged came back still the same very slow turning... now battery is low again from trying... something doesnt seem right or do I just need to keep trieng so it builds oil pressure to lube the new heads I installed after getting it machined ?????

Cleaning aluminum heads with a wire wheel is a cardinal sin 🤮 your customers must have their heads blow after 10k everytime and also the pistons will carbon up by the time of their oil change. The wire wheel is just making a better surface for carbon to attach and harden so your process will create more carbon on the pistons not like it really even matters
the wire brush is not hard enough to do what you are trying to imagine. Thank you please like, share, and subscribe, also please check out my other channel Salem Taxi, on TH-cam for more material on a different level.
What the hell size socket is used to remove the head bolts? 14mm don't fit and 15mm slips and wants to round them off. Aghhh!! (2.7 V6 in an 06 Magnum)
just loosten the tentioner witch will be by the one adjustable pully then pull out the belt and look up the diagram for reinstalling the belt witch way the belt went and bam done super simple
Aye this video helped me out a lot. While i wasn't replacing the head gaskets. I couldn't find any other video replacing all 3 of the intake gaskets, but this one. Thank dude!
Glad it helped
Great work man, your customers must be really happy having a mechanic like you

You fail to mention you have to remove the bolts from the side of the head that go to the exhaust pipes
did you get them out?
One question What has to be timed when you replace the engine heads?
Great job sir, appreciate your time. Helped tremendously....

Yes, that was very helpful.
Is this the same procedure as a 2010 grand caravan with the 4.0L engine?
yep
for the most part
Helping a bunch, love the vid! But on the exhaust did you jus unbolt the cat from the headers? Thanks!
Hi, doing a 4.0L now. How do you hold cam pully when removing or tightining retainer bolt? Thx!
Do the head gaskets on these engines leak externally? Ive got one that is seeping right around the head/rear timing cover area, not sure what it is yet since its so tight in there. Would like to be prepared before we do major surgery.

How did you clean the top of the valves?
*Can you go through the opening of lower intake manifold holes?
do you have to remove everything to just replace the head gasket itself. have a 2.5 though
Really good work. Would it be a good idea to replace the freeze plugs ??
great video, thank you
Notice the valves were different inside the new head will that effect pressure any
"the easy way" lol...great video!
How long did this take for u to complete the job?
Good job outstanding you know ur stuff

What tool do you use for the camshaft?
Excellent video, I hear that the 3.5 mopar is a pain to work on.
alphaomegaello it is lol i just worked on one the other day
i said screw it and pulled the engine out to take it apart it was so annoying lol
What does this type of labor work usually charge ???
I have a 2005 300C 5.7 hemi with the same issue... I don't want to crush it because this is the only major issue I've had with this vehicle.
Great Video by the way too,Man‼️💪🏿
Use we-40 when cleaning the parts dry is harder.
If you crawl under the vehicle and take one small bolt out of the trans tube bracket you can pull it completely out, much easier.

Why is the passenger a dark brown color?
Thanks for the video, great work! I purchase a tool for the 90 Degree angle guage which help because it saves on White out?
Most of the parts that are most important to visualize for a non mechanic are skipped right over. Its pretty easy to set up a camera on a tripod or you could even zip tie it to the hood.
Would this work on 2012 5.7 charger
so you dint check to see if the head ir block are warped?
block was checked, and the heads were machined
save 3.5 07 , could a bad spring under rocker prevent car from starting. after header replacement ?same header you've use.
My son has a 2010 Chrysler Sebring and we want to replace his blown head gaskets. Can you make a video for his model.

No 2.7 has a timing chain and cams
@@adakainesha Thanks for clearing that up. So a metal chain not a rubber belt for time chain on the 2.7 vs this video.
Can you do a video on how to time the belt?
Domanic Snowden i can help. theres two little notches at the timing cover and cam gears. the cam gears have to line up with the notches on the timing cover. as for what position the cylinders must be at i believe it should be cylinder 1 has to be all the way up. hope thag helped
Good job 👏 👍 👌
Great videos I like your explanation ,I have one question please how can I find out how to torqe the head gasket is it writing in new gasket ore how to know that, please let me know if you could mate.
How much that job runs ... is it worth it or just put another engine in it?
Was a great video
will this work for an 06 chrysler 300?
Is it the same in dodge charger 3.5?
I have a 2007 DODGE CHARGER with 3.5 Liter motor. I had issues with the car running hot, and i drained the oil and antifreeze. I have changed the radiator and the thermostat.

Why you didn’t start with the pattern when puting the head back on
Can you fix mine?
good job
I got a 3.5 it shakes alot after the cerpan timing belt was replaced keep i did a major tune up none helps the shaking
Do you really have to lift the motor up
Is it the same as a 2009
I can’t figure out how to remove the pulley timing gears. I can’t find any videos
What the hell size socket is used to remove the head bolts? 14mm don't fit and 15mm slips and wants to round them off. Aghhh!! (2.7 V6 in an 06 Magnum)
What about 2.7v
Can you show how to replace a timing belt
just loosten the tentioner witch will be by the one adjustable pully then pull out the belt and look up the diagram for reinstalling the belt witch way the belt went and bam done super simple
How do you remove the driver head gasket?
Awesome video
Top demais
the valve looked different on the replacement head
I need some help
Good video tho thanks
You forgot to mention removing the 2 bolts where the exhaust connects…
thanks
How the shit did he magically get the exhaust manifold off ?? Please add to your next video
ok, kool but its not a hard process, just unbolt it and remove
Steel wire brush vs Aluminum head = bad...scotch pad, brass wire brush, or a razor scraper...I believe is the proper way.
a razor can gouge the surface, the bristles on this brush are softer then the metal they are being used on.
Just take the time and take it to a machine shop to get hot tanked and decked. I just let my customers know ahead of time there will be a wait.
I have charger 2006 same motor as that one
If u got oil in coolant in a 300. Take hoses off oil cooler, bypass cooler and half the time problem solved.
This ain’t no 5.7 hemi tho.
the title says 3.5 engine so what your point?
He said it's a 3.5
Goofy
Awesome video
