Man you make awesome videos

So I put my an everything in I start the engine and smoke started coming out the muffler
2007 Mitsubishi endeavor 2wd
Question,what is the brand of the interesting ratchet called
+ Piotr Konopka - There are two kinds of ratchets that I used in this DIY, first is a small 360 swivel ratchet (Performax 1/4 drive indexable ratchet) and the second one is a torque wrench (small-- the units are in inch-pound from Harbor *reight..:)
Kumusta Pare, I just recently changed the valve cover gaskets which reduced the oil leaks, but I noticed it is also leaking at the cam thrust plate area as well. Do you know how to replace those o-rings? There appear to be some coolant pipes blocking access. Salamat!
+Blake Onyx - Sorry pre, I have not done that yet on my Mitsu but as I know, the procedure is very similar to other Mitsus like the eclipse and the lancer. UA-camrs like AfzaMoto showed his work very well on a lancer. SCPO USNAY did it on an eclipse. The working space is very tight indeed but it is doable. If you decide to DIY on your Endeavor, be very careful when working on the right camshaft pulley (the one near the firewall). It is under spring tension and it may jump and turn on either way and may injure your fingers. Before you remove the camshaft pulley bolt, be sure it is on top dead center and marks on the pulley and timing belt are made. Watch my timing belt video on how to recover from a camshaft that jumped just in case complications arise. Hope this helps.
@@nunkirider8738 Thanks for the advice! However, I think we're thinking of the opposite ends of the cam. The cam o-ring I am referring to is for a cover plate and it's on the driver's side (near intake), not the pulley side. It is a known leaking spot on Montero's as well as other mitsubishi v6's.
+ Blake Onyx- Sorry pre I misunderstood you however this is the only one I've got : www.autozone.com/repairguides/Mitsubishi-Endeavor-2004-06/Engine-Mechanical-Components/Camshaft-Bearings-Lifters/_/P-0996b43f8037a3e9
I know I backtracked carefully minor scew replacement error here or there but no big deal to my concern so and I don't think it could be the vacuum hoses either unless I'm connecting wrong one s together but I doubt that any tips or heads up my replacement plugs or Double Iridium Bosch 9603 box number(AutoZone) also I've changed the anifreeze at the same time know thats Prestone prediluted 50/50 pleas help if I figured it out it'll be a reply below if not then please reply adleast soon as you see this
+Demetrius Harris - If a dreaded smoke screen belched out of the muffler on startup after you have changed the spark plugs, this may be secondary to an engine oil that leaked into the 'spark plug well' due to a leaking 'spark plug tube seal' and when you removed the spark plugs, the engine oil drained into the combustion chamber. When you started the engine after the repair, the engine oil was burned and this can result into a dreaded smoke screen bellowing out the muffler exhaust that will freak out your neighbors and call the fire department. By now, hopefully all the engine oil in the combustion chamber are already burned out and there is no more smoke... If it is still there, recheck the integrity of your 'spark plug tube seals' and/or ask a professional ... :)
The smoke is gone the car sounds great on start up the only problem is that it doesn't wanna stay on the front engine always makes a popping noise every other try I'm taking the battery to AutoZone to get it checked cause I left it on the concrete floor over night
+Demetrius Harris - Recheck all your electrical contacts. Try to apply 'Dielectric connector Grease' on the spark plug - ignition coil connections so you will have a good electrical contact and may solve your problem... :)
@@nunkirider8738 bro I just walked a mile with a battery and it might not be the problem and on top of that I gotta take the engine take it apart a third time man I'm just glad your here for me ..I'll let you know what happens
Engine runs good I let the smoke seep out for About 30 mins til hour before it completely burned out every drop of oil debry from falling down the engine everything seems good though new tires and off I go on my road trip thanks a ton man..
What's the torque specs for the valve covers mate?
+Mario Carino - For Mitsubishi Endeavor it is 3.5 ± 0.5 N-m ( 31 ± 4 inch-lb )
How do you know when to change this?
+ ADUSEI6111 - When you see engine oil leaking from the sides of the valve cover.
@@nunkirider8738 Cool, thanks man
