    This is by far the BEST most complete video for this model on TH-cam. If you buy genuine Toyota gaskets, you do not need to put any glue or other substance on them, and they will not fall out. TOYOTA part 11214-20030 is the gasket for the front valve cover, and part 11213-20030 for the rear, and six spark plug tube seals part 11193-7010 in a set are available for about $55-60 on eBay. Well worth the money, and this set will fit ALL 130 Toyota vehicles with a 3.0 Liter 1MZFE or 3.3 Liter 3MZFE engine. Good for 15 years. Again, an EXCELLENT video with excellent camera work!

    Doing my valve cover gaskets right now, The rear gasket started seeping a small amount of oil. It is a very nice used lexus, while taking the valve covers off, I found the last shop ( the previous owner always had the same shop do all the scheduled maintenance on the car) did a half ass job, First I found they never tightened up the rear brackets lower bolts, they completely left off one of the bolts to the top of the left most bracket that bolts into the air intake flume, and when I went to remove the 9 bolts on the rear valve cover, I found I did not even need a wrench, they were all just hand tight, the shop totally forgot to torque them down. I am amazed the car went this long without leaking. This is why I do not like taking my cars to a mechanic unless I absolutely must. I try to do everything on my cars myself, That way I know it was done right and I know what parts and fluids are being used.

      Sometime the bolts are loose because the gasket has actually shrunk/deteriorated leaving room for the rocker cover to move up and down and loosen the bolts. Just something I’ve come across.

    I replaced both of my valve cover gaskets. I found that if I tie wraped the back harness away from the cover on both sides it made easy removal. Also why did you not check valve clearance? All my intake clearances were within specs, but the exhaust 4 valves were sloppy. Just need a screwdriver and magnetic wand along with a pick to break the friction suction on the bucket. I went to the auto salvage and removed shims on two engines so I would have a variety. I probably got 40 shims for a couple of bucks.

    *Update
    I finally did the back valave. Not an easy task! Lots of vacum lines to remember.
    On top of that the purge vacum plastic nipple broke on me. Connects to the same line that broke on you.
    I went to a junkyard, found the exact same one, last one at that! Cost me $6, compared to autozone $84.xx phew
    The left braket holding the intake was finger tighten. So I got Lucky. Definitely a learning experience
    Respect to any mechanic that can do this with ease. Now I understand why it cost so much $$$
