Awesome video, definitely a very good Job
Thank you
I'm doing a 2013 Kia Forte EX 2.0
Very similar besides the turbo
I'm somewhat short, so I hope it helps for some McDonald's or something 👍

I was going crazy with all hose water hoses, I guess it helps to cool but never seen so many

[@ValleyMobileAutomotive]

Yeah there are a lot of coolant hoses!

After Removing The Right Phaser how did you know where to set the Cam?

[@aikidokamks]

Is it my imagination or are there no holes in the gasket matching the passages around the combustion chamber in the cylinder head?
