Just a warning that I tore a few grommets in half by installing them using the method shown in the video. I had better luck putting the grommet on the bolt and then installing it in the valve cover. The brand I used was Fel-Pro. Besides that I appreciate the videos!

I was just going to comment that also. Had to use one of my originals as broke the first one I tried. All the rest I put them on first before installing them into the valve cover.

I've found the easiest way for myself to do all the valve gaskets. Is taking the air intake off and I also replace the oil pressure sensor at the same time, because chances are if the valve covers are leaking so isn't the oil pressure sending unit. It makes it easier to remove the valve covers and install them. So air intake off, coil packs off, valve covers, then go in the steps in reverse.

About to do this repair myself as the passenger side is leaking/spraying onto the header heat shield...I'd recommend to check your rear main seal as well as your oil pan and pick up tube O ring if you're having some "oil issues" or "oil pressure issues" with high mileage on you 1500 Sierra/Silverado

Put the bolt through the grommet first, then install it in valve cover

To keep the gasket in place I put it into the grove and held it in front of an electric heater for a few minutes while holding the gasket in place. Eventually it relaxed enough to stay. I did not have to use any gasket sealer to hold it.

Don’t put that bolt gaskets on the way he did. You will just break them in half.

I used a little oil and put them on the bolt the way you install a tire, put one side on then push the other side on. I Cleaned them off then popped them into the valve cover.

Question. So the valve covers on my engine do not have that intake vacuum line port/hole. But my throttle body has port for a vacuum line. Do i have the wrong throttle body?. I bought the 2001 Tahoe and i dont believe it has the original engine. I believe its a 4.8l

@jeffbeaty6955 3 жыл бұрын

I don't think I saw where you changed out a seal for the oil fill spout. Can that be changed as well or is that not intended to be removed?
