Great job! I'm not a mechanic but I have been working on my 2004 5x 4.8is. I still have some leaks that need to be fixed. Oil pressure sensor and the alternator bracket seal.

What was the end cost to the customer.

[@MaicSalazarDiagnostics]

No idea, I am a mechanic no service writer.

[@anthonyreforzo2267]

did you not have to hook up the scanner to tell the car you will be disconnecting the 2 motors on top of the valve covers?

[@bluegables]

Anybody see which part is the oil leaking?

[@jorarr5174]

Why u remove all those connections to remove the valve cover

[@MaicSalazarDiagnostics]

Nope! I did that to repair a leak on a cover that the intake manifold was on the way.

[@jorarr5174]
