Did you remove the 2 bolts? He said is not necessary to remove.

How do remember where every screw & connector goes, and how they clip on ?

@@barbswit1653 I carefully tagged every connector and hose to make sure I put them back where they came from after, and wrote down for each step how many bolts, and stored them carefully to correspond with that step. If this is your first time into this job, I highly recommend being very organized.

@@barbswit1653 take pictures as you go, make notes, label things if you really aren’t sure.

Just know that you’d need to try really hard to mess up the connectors, they are obvious as to location.

Shut up

I only used the sealant and still leaks oil. Need to use the extra sealant like him to stop the leak

Glad this helped!

well I disagree, he goes over removing the head gasket, which was the part I was interested in, and on top of that I didn't have to hear personal stories or jokes, o I stand for what I said.

Haha right Holy crap

Boooooy!!! …. I’ll tell ya…😂 i almost broke my phone, wanted to make him stop from braking the rachet…holly baby Jesus!!!!!

Thank you!

Bwahahaha

Look in his toolbox with the rest of them.

Thats too much knowledge for us

NorCal OutDoor im surprised no one replied yet to you. Its a permatex black gasket glue, you could find it at home depot or at most auto stores. You can use any gasket glue though.

Do not use the glue. Only use where the circular plug is and in the joints on the left. Little in the the cracks to the right of the sprockets. I just redid this job. Because the person used the glue. It only makes leaks if not used in the proper spots.

Get another quote. From estimates from San Francisco and San Diego, I was looking at $300 - $400. For the water pump/timing belt, I'm risking by not replacing it but its a non-interference engine so its not the worst thing if timing belt snaps. Keep your eye on your temperature gauge though because a faulty water pump could spell the end for your car if you let it overheat.

That's a good price for front and rear. I just paid $475 for labor alone !

Awesome!

🦶 ha ha.. exactly what I thought

almost 170k.

Im at 304,982...And still running strong...Toyota for life!

283 and counting!@@kblack9094

403,000 my valve cover gasket just started leaking.

Just hit 300k a few days ago.

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback!

Yes. I changed the valve cover and orielly said I don't need any type of glue. The rubber makes a seal with any sort of adhesive

Not really as much anymore have you looked at harbor freights reviews lately. 5 star everything lol

I have a lot of Harbor Freight tools, most are several years old and have been fine for automotive repairs, tractor repairs, lawn mower service, and general purpose use. I purchased a lot if Harbor Freight tools for a major home remodel, and sold them after I was done. That was a lot cheaper than renting saws, etc. I did have one Harbor Freight metal chop saw that stopped working year four, but I had probably made over a hundred angle iron cuts by then. I paid $49 for it. I still use my Harbor Freight drill press I paid $50 for many years ago. I had a neighbor who would only buy Snap-on or Craftsman tools. He bragged about the lifetime warranty, until I explained to him to that he was paying in advance for three or four replacement tools he’d never see. I have a Harbor Freight concrete mixer. Beats the heck out of mixing by hand.

Do you have a video of this job? I'm not trusting it because he suggested harbor freight tools lmao
