Thanks for the video bro, I watched it because I’m working on my 2011 lancer gts. The difference I saw was the your valve cover has 18 bolts and mine has 16 but I followed the same pattern and I will drive it tomorrow so the sealant dries and let you know if the leaks came back 👍

Only put rtv where they tell you to put. In my 1.6 4a92 it is just where the front cover meet the engine. It is to fill the small seam that the black gasket can't reach. It doesn't need to be right around the cover and for a gasket maker to do a job it suppose to be hand tighten which is mostly by not using a power handle and just using wrist handle until start oozes out. Wait for hour for it to take shape then torque it down. Also using a wire brush to clean the surface is a bad idea most of time the gasket would stain the surface. Just use contact cleaner on a microfiber cloth and wipe clean

2008 Lancer, Canada. A mechanic found a "dead bird" under the hood of my friend Lancer. The car was losing power, up and down speeds, but not stalling as much. Once the dead bird removed, the second day of driving around was much better, but the not the first day after. Anyways, i cleaned the "PCV valve" and the EGR valve. on the second. The car runs like new.

The video is good. But two things I now notice (I have watched this video before). One; you didn't fully clean the cover before fitting the gasket. Two; you didn't use oil resistant sealant. I realized this after a couple of months later when I found oil getting to my spark plugs! But you had the right idea, I appreciate the video!

These lancer only need a blob where the front timing chain cover meet the engine no where else.

You are using Permatex RTV which is why it is causing your leak to happen over time. Use Three Bond 1217G/H. Get it at the Subaru dealership.
@AzraelPercussionNEO3 жыл бұрын
Also I would use a Three Bond Sealant 1217 series and not Permatex. Also you didn't show HOW you put the Valve Cover Gasket on the Valve Cover. Also you didn't mention how oil can get into the Spark Plug Well Holes over time if you do not change your Valve Cover Gasket over time (this happened to my lancer)

@VernonDraws5 жыл бұрын
I work as a mechanic and I have a 2011 model Lancer GLS and those MIVEC engines are strong little monsters but the reason why your valve cover casket is leaking is probably because you might of raced the car or launch the car really hard. Remember your car was designed to be a family car. It’s not an EVO. The problem with hammering your car is that you are pushing parts far beyond what they were designed to do

@dredman16285 жыл бұрын
Thanks for this. Gives me some confidence to try it on my own now. Just 2 questions: 1. Looking back, did you really need to remove the PCV valve from the valve cover? Doesn't seem so to me as it will just come off with the cover. 2. Did you apply RTV to only the head surface, or to the valve cover as well (meaning did only 1 side or both sides of the gasket had RTV)? Thanks again.
@danielc94685 жыл бұрын
PCV valve yea probably didn't need too come off but it was my first time doing it and was just being thorough. and RTV was only to one side, dont think you need that much. thanks
@AzraelPercussionNEO3 жыл бұрын
You need to buy Three Bond 1217G/H sealant. This sealant is the proper sealant for the job. Also you just seat the gasket on grooves on the edge of the Valve Cover no need to seal any of that. You put a dab of sealant between the Timing Chain Case Assembly and the Cylinder Head Assembly. A dab on each edge (2 locations) from which they meet together

Great Video. I contemplated recording my replacement. I did not have the manufacturer torque values but wish I did (although my new gasket hasn't shown signs of leaking so I think I'm fine). I've had rough idling on the 2008 Lancer which was cause by a dirty throttle body (Carb cleaner and sea foam). However, I have been trying to find the service manual for this car without any luck. Could you share your service manual? I believe I have a head gasket issue now (183,000 miles) and am looking into resources for that. I would be recording and sharing this replacement project.
