You’ve not only saved me hundreds of dollars in a difficult economy but have helped me learn the layout of my vehicle better. Thank you for the upload sir.
@brandonlopez1816 Im glad my video helped you. Thanks for watching!
I've watched several videos on this procedure, and yours is the best -- torque specs, helpful tips, and you show instead of tell. Most guys just point to something and say, "Now I'll remove that" or "There were three bolts I had to remove." Thank you. Now to do it on my own 2005....
I appreciate that, thank you!
I just used this video as a guide to replace the number three cylinder ignition coil, and everything went just as the video described, it was extremely helpful. Thank you
@@craftbrain glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
thanks for all the tools and close ups of those hard to see nuts, bolts and connectors!
Thank you for watching!
Best video made for this car...im confident i can tackle it myself on my car..thanks
@lositruggies1581 hope it helps! Thanks for watching!
You’re awesome! I love how you show what you’re doing, yet sped up, while telling viewers through the wording on the screen more important information!!❤❤
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Great vid! Good, step by step! And to have torque specs... Clean work too..
@@jamesguralski5156 thank you! Thanks for watching!
@@MegaMilesBen I have a 2001 Toyota solara! Needs this done! That intake over the back valve cover, is so stupid! That design created so much extra work. Car runs great. But stinks of burning oil. I'm also thinking of changing the rubber mid pipe for the cooling system. It's under the intake between the cylinders.
The first value cover gasket you set on the workbench sounded hard as plastic. Always great to see a mechanic use a torque wrench when reassembling fasteners. ✌🏻
Yea they were pretty old for sure. The seals were really stuck in the covers too. Took some working to get those out.
Thanks for always watching!
@@MegaMilesBen I always enjoy them
What a good work! thank you for sharing the process on how to replace the cover gasket, spark plug and coils.
Thank you for watching!
Ben thanks so much for this video. wish you were located in the bronx NY... now in the search for a ES 330. I found one today with alot of oil leakin around the engine and decided to walk away..
Always follow leaks up. Its not uncommon for most leaks to be valve cover leaks. High rpms makes them leak cause theyre such a light torque.
Thank you for watching!!
Fantastic video learn a lot from your master skill Thank you, I have changed the gasket easily on the front side but the back of the engine leaks badly after changing it,I have put very little gasket maker on the corners after deep clean should I put extra gasket maker any recommendations. Thanks again
@journeymindset2054 that back one can be a pain and if the gasket slips when youre installing it, it wont sit right or seal up. If its leaking that bad, I personally would pull it, find the exact leak and do it again.
Youre sure its the valve cover gasket leaking and not something else back there? You can get a good view of the backside from under the car. Follow the oil up till it stops and thats where your leak is.
@@MegaMilesBen Thank you and have a wonderful day!
nice job
I’m impressed by your attention to detail…..
Thank you!! Thanks for watching!
Question... In many other videos, there is a step that requires getting to a bolt on/near the rear cover from underneath the vehicle. Did you have to do this as well?
My video shows my entire process. Im not sure about that, I do a lot of Toyota valve covers and tune ups, cant say Ive ever had to go under the car for the job.
Great video
Thank you for watching!
Damn you’re good you’re too good
Thank you for watching!
I can't get the 14mm nut off from the back bracket, I think mine is a 15mm, it doesn't fit when I tried. Please help
@alcruz8637 maybe someone has switched it. If it doesnt fit youll need to find the size that fits. Thats not uncommon.
Hi @megamilesben - I have been putting off this repair for a while, and will not be able to (due to personal reasons). In the meanwhile, I want to just re-tighten the valve cover bolts (carefully, to torque specs) to reduce the leak, and get by for a few months by topping off oil every 2 weeks. What is the easiest way to access the REAR valve cover bolts without taking off everything? Can we access the bolts from the bottom of the car, or is it necessary to take off the plenum? Thanks for the excellent video!
You need to remove the plenum so you might as well just do them.
Very helpful. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Did you use motor oil to lube the six tube seals when you installed them in valve covers?
@stevenw2866 yes. I do the outer and inner edges.
Thanks for the reply
Awesome vid! 🎉
Thanks for watching!!
Hi, did you take the half moon plastic off and put gasket sealant? thanks!
No, I only do if theyre leaking or if Im doing a head gasket job. I dont like to disturb them otherwise.
Those coils still working?
Yes, as far as I know. My clients provide their own parts.
How much did you charge customer for this job? Just wondering I'm needing mine done
I dont discuss labor prices on youtube. My little shop is discounted for the community and my clients provide their own parts. My prices dont compare to other shops, sorry.
Book calls for 3.5 hours for just the valve cover gaskets.
@@MegaMilesBen I got quoted $690 for a water pump, timing belt, alternator, serpentine belt and tensioner pulley. With me bringing all the parts. Is that fair you think?
@Gooose1309 depends on location and going labor rate. Probably. Toyota timing is usually about 6 hours book time.
