Thank you so much 🙏

​@@MrBeeHSYou're welcome.

It's 7 ft lbs. Thank you very much for watching my videos. Any questions don't hesitate to message me anytime.👍

@@MrBeeHS thank you for the quick response!

@@husscaboose you are very welcome 🤗

You are very welcome my friend. You can wait an hour or two. You should be fine and also check after driving for a while to confirm that the gasket seal correctly and not leaking any oil.

Thanks a lot for the response. I am going to do my first valve cover replacement today or this weekend. Hope to update you on how it goes.

You're welcome, my friend 🙏 Yes, please keep me posted on how it goes, and please take your time on it and don't rush.

No I do not have the water pump replacement video. This car is pretty reliable and it's a pretty cheap car (in my opinion). The only way to tell if the car is overheating is to wait till the gauge lights up. It's kind of like the Toyota Prius. They do not have the temperature gauge, just the light. As long as you keep an eye on the coolant and make sure that there is no coolant leak, it will be ok. Thanks for watching my videos, I appreciate it very much.

@@MrBeeHS are their ever times when the light does not work and the car is actually overheating?

You can check if the light is working when you turn on the key, but don't start the car. The overheating light should come on, if not then you need to get the light fixed.

@@MrBeeHS gotcha. I was thinking there must be some sensor that sends the information to the light to make it come on. Some sensor that measures the temperature?

Yes, there is a coolant temperature sensor that sends the signal to the light. It's located in the back of the cylinder head close to the firewall. In order to see the sensor, you need to remove the air box assembly. I hope that helps.

Great idea, I appreciate your idea. 👍🙏

The one that you've found will work great as well. As long as it sensor safe and oil resistant.

​@MrBeeHS What's the kind you're using, and is that better?

I used the same brand that you're using...Permatex. it's a good brand, and I've been using the brand for decades. They do have different colors, which have different rating temperatures. The one that you got it good.

Ok, thanks.

You're very welcome my friend 🙏

It has a timing belt.

Yes sir definitely 👍 Ok, the valve cover should have 12 bolts that are bolted onto the cylinder head. I will try to explain as deas possible for you. If you split the valve cover in 3 sections horizontally. The back section towards the firewall will have 4 bolts. Middle section will have 3 bolts and the front section toward the grille will have 5 bolts. What you do is to tight the middle bolt the the back section first....but not too tight...just snug. After that, you move to the front section in a criss-cross pattern. Like an X pattern. After that tight the back across from it and then X pattern again. I hope this helps. Let me know if you need more help. 🙏

@MrBeeHS I'm confused, the back section has 4 bolt holes, how do you start in the middle? I have an idea to make this very clear. B1( ) B2( ) B3( ) B4( ) M1( ) M2( ) M3( ) F1( ) F2( ) F3( ) F4( ) F5( ) Could you place the number sequence within these parentheses?

I apologize for that....🙏 B1 (6) B2(1) B3(3) B4(10) M1(7) M2(12) M3(8) F1(9) F2(4) F3(2) F4(11) F5(5) I hope this pattern should help you with the torque pattern. Keep in mind that as long as you keep it in a criss-cross pattern, it will give you a proper seal. You can also use this method for different applications as well, like oil pan, transmission pan, water pump, etc. Please keep me posted. 🙏

@MrBeeHS Thank you for taking the time to do that! I will definitely keep you posted. I plan on starting this project in maybe a couple of weeks.

You're very welcome my friend 🙏. I am here to help you save money on the insane labor that mechanics have been doing for decades. In my opinion....that's not right to overcharge people on labor like that. Anyways, feel free to contact me anytime if you run into any problems. 🙏
