hey guys. this is on my son's Kia it has a 2.0 litter just like all my hyundais had. these valve cover gaskets are a pretty common failure on these engines but an easy fix
Great job. To bad your son was not there to help you. My grandkids only know if the car runs it is ok. If not then the goer must be bad. I had all girls and they did not want to get oily and greasy so that did not work either. Thank goodness your son has a father that can fix things. Thanks for the video's.
Thanks. I had 4 boys and only the oldest is interested in fixing cars, he's 31. The son that owns the car is 23 and has other interests if you know what I mean. I used to do a lot more car work but I'm to old now. I'll still do the easy stuff though
Must be tough having to work on that bigger machinery. That gasket was done, to have a gap like that I was surprised she didn't flame up. We've all been there, I can still smell the burning oil on a couple of the vehicles I use to drive. The old Beetles where bad for leaking at the valve cover. Catch up to you next week. Stevo
How's she goin'? The valve cover gasket was pretty well done for eh. Brittle as all get out and the seals were the same. Nice job and it should be good now for another 200K!!! Take care!!!

At least you did not have to look hard to find where the smell was coming from 😀 I was surprised how bad the old gasket was. Great job on the repair
Hi Joseph. It is crazy how dry and hard the gasket and seals get. Thanks and take care
I wish my son's Camry was that smooth when IT started smelling funny. We got her done though. Lol. Good fix from a good Dad Dave. 👍👍
Thanks buddy
Yep that gasket shot. I bet he was leaking a lot of oil and right on that hot exhaust. Good Job Dave! Good to see you again Have a great week!!
Thank you Bob. It was definitely shotsky

He bought this car last summer. So previous owner apparently didn't change the oil much. I wasn't expecting it to be this bad

Great job man
Thanks. I appreciate it very much

Thank you Francis
Now I know who to take my Kia to when it starts “smelling funny”. 😃
LOL. You might want to find somebody closer John 😅
How old is that engine? How many miles on it?
I guess if I wasn’t so impatient you would’ve eventually told me the answer to my question
100k. It's a 2004 Kia spectra. It's my son's car
