  • Replacement of the valve cover gasket and spark plugs on a 2001 Toyota Rav4 2.0L.
    ATTENTION: The valve cover bolt torque is listed wrong in the video (though I did go by Prodemand/Mitchell). according to Toyota, valve caver bolt torque specs should be 97in-lbs.

    Great video and thank you. Are the valve cover bolts all the same size or do they need to be sorted when you remove them?

    Hello. The first hose you removed that was attached to the air box, where does it connect to? Mine does not have that, the hole in the airbox is covered with a cap.

    • @MegaMilesBen

      I cant post a picture on here. That hose goes to a metal tube thats right below the mass air flow sensor.

      @@MegaMilesBen got it. my rav4 is the asia variant and the vacuum pipe diagram is different. I'm guessing it might have to do with cruise control which US variants have.

    Just one thing..Great video but i would have added some sealer on the gasket

    • @MegaMilesBen
      @MegaMilesBen  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This one doesnt require any. Theres no breaks in the mating surface for timing cover or anything.
      Unneeded and excessive use of gasket maker can actually cause leaks.

    I have the same rav4 2001. But my cruise control stopped engaging it turns on dashboard but doesn’t engage.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    5 ft lbs? Should be at least 17 ft lbs that thing was leaking again within a month and if you say no I know you're lying

      You dont have to come off so rude 🤷‍♂️
      All my listed torque values come from ProDemand/Mitchell and is the program probably 70-80% of all mechanics use.
      However, because of your rather rude comment, I did just get off the phone with Toyota. Toyota states 97in-lbs or 8.08ft-lbs.
      I havent had any issues at all with the install or leakage with this one. Its been back for other work a couple times.
