    Thank you for having the ONLY gasket replacement video to show how the spark plug tube gaskets are supposed to look before and after and explaining about bending the tabs back for the 3.5L toyota engine.

    I noticed the the upper "dog bone" motor mount is wore out imo i would have replaced it while i was there. And also clean the valve cover with some brake cleaner before reinstalling it 😊.otherwise great video. 😊

      Hey thanks for watching. Unfortunately the vehicles owner had already replaced the rear gasket previously and then it started leaking from the front valve cover so that’s why I only had the chance to repair the front. I apologize for the confusion.

    Hey bro cab u please link the gasket kit on ebay or etc and quick question how do you keep track of all the screws and bolts u takeoff?

    • @ucanfixit1
      @ucanfixit1  7 місяців тому +2

      Hey thanks for watching. I actually went to Advanced Auto Parts and bought the kit there. As for the screws I kinda have a good memory from doing it so much but what you can do is either take pictures or a video of everything before you start or get a shoe box or something and poke holes in it and put the screws in there kind of in the same shape as the valve cover to help you keep track of them. Hope this helped.
