Thank you very much!! Only thing I don’t understand is the strength required to put it back on 6lbs? What why can’t I just screw it on? I’m not a car guy lol

Hey There, you can just screw it down, but the torque it 6ft/lbs so what that means is you don't have to tighten it very much, just nice and snug, once you "feel" the bolt get tight, another nudge and you are good.

Right at the 9min mark !!! I thought I didn't let everyone know, because I usually do it at the end, but this time at the 9min mark, because then I went and broke up the valve cover after that LOL. Here are amazon links if you don't want to go back to the video. Here is a Hazet (made in Germany) for 70% off, excellent quality amzn.to/4cNqiOy and you need a T30 amzn.to/3Z6CJ4w and you need a ratchet and it helps to have a swivel. Any other questions just let me know.

@@user-po8oj6mx7g I would check the valve cover first to see if its leaking, you can easily do with your finger like I did in the video. Then I would check for any vacuum leaks. You could try spraying brake clean around and see if the idle fluctuates. If it does you have a vacuum leak.

I actually didn't, and did not know it was the intake that caused that. It was my friends vehicle and he supplied the part. Actually did the job about a 1.5 years ago and its still good. I finally got to editing and uploading the video just a few weeks ago. I really appreciate your comment as I did not know that about the intake manifold, and if he comes back with the same problem I know what we are doing then!!! Thanks for the comment, I do appreciate it :)

@@GarageKing yeah the valve cover can last months can last year's when its replaced but the reason why it goes is cause of a little purge valve goes missing in the intake manifold and the only way to fix it is to replace the entire intake manifold

Hey there and thanks for the comment, you have to buy the complete cover as the membrane is incorporated into the cover. I just broke it apart for the video so everyone could see. The cover is actually pretty cheap. amzn.to/2UpRYGF in the US and if you are in Canada its amzn.to/3Hj4r4R thanks !!!

Hey there, I use this amzn.to/4dXj8rW for anything above the cylinder head. Its high temp and these engines run hot. If you are doing an oil pan I use the black stuff that has more oil resistance. Not a hard job so take your time and you will do great !!!

It could be possible that you are just not hearing it yet? I'm not sure how sensitive the computer is, and where the parameters to throw a light are set. It could just be that your leak is very small and you can't hear it, but its enough to set the code.

For a temporary fix will jb Weld or something similar will work?
@GarageKing
Жыл бұрын
Hey There, nope it won't and I'll tell you why. The part that leaks and causes the problem is the flexible rubber membrane. When JB weld dries its going to be hard so it won't work, plus I would be afraid of using anything, but if it comes loose that's going in the engine and then you have much bigger problems than a valve cover.... Happy Friday to you :)

I can't see them charging more than an hour labor to do the job, its actually not that hard. You could even clear the computer yourself with a code reader. Just make sure its the valve cover, make sure you have those codes, and if you want to be 100% sure after the job....... Well break apart the valve cover like I did and look for the hole in the diaphragm.
