When I saw your video, I said, "You have GOT to be kidding me!" I just did this on my son's 2002 F-150 *yesterday* morning (3/22/24). His truck is nearly identical to the one in the video, it's an "XL", same color and even has the same aftermarket headlights. Different wheels and no nerf bars. I also installed the exact same Fel-Pro gasket set on his truck! I searched for hours trying to find a good video showing the valve gasket replacement on a 4.2 v6 in this generation of F-150 and only found one and it was pretty bad. This is an excellent video. Thanks for posting even it it was literally a day too late to help me. LOL!

Wow, what are the odds! Glad you got it done at least!
Oh, cool. I have to do this. Now I know what the gasket set means by with or without grommets.
Glad to help! Have fun
Thank you for this Video! I’m about to tackle this project, what was the torque specs?
You're welcome. 89 inch pounds (if you can fit a torque wrench in there).
I just don't see how you can do this without getting dirt inside.
"O" What FUN.
It was a thrilling experience
