Looked for a while to see if there was a video like this on the web. Didn't find one. My first attempt to do a video like this. I've done several other auto repair write ups on my blog, but they were done by writing and still photos. I know that I've most likely misspoke during the video, please take it in the spirit it's given. I'm allowing comments here, but won't allow you to rake me over th...
I actually would have liked seeing u clean all that because I have a similar situation only maybe a little dirtier and I’m scared to get any into my engine
Thanks , great narration .
Great video!!!
Recently had my valley cover gasket replaced but they used the old coolant bypass lines. Worst of all they didnt put the metal spacers/gaskets back. Im pretty sure one of the ports is leaking significantly now. Could that be a possible problem for electrical issues at the back of the block? Considering thats where the engine ground is?
damn I need to do this job on my tahoe in the spring. Guess I need to compile a list of gaskets and new parts. Looks like replacing everything all at once is the best move. Thanks for the video!
Question when you removed the valley cover and you said the coolent bypass pipes did they leak when you disconnect them???? Will I need to add more coolant? I'm replacing the oil pressure sensor, camshaft position sensor, knock sensors and wire harness, Valley pan gasket. And valve cover gaskets. I already did the intake manifold gasket last year. I would love to get everything cleaned up.
excellent video
Your my hero
Incredible video!
5⭐️bud man. Great job. Thank you
Nice Job!
This is the video I been hoping for! What a great job. Thankyou sir!
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing it with us. 🇺🇸
This video was very helpful, thank you!!
You're so welcome!
Great video. A lot of cleaning. Looks great.
I'm struggling with the same problem but I'm losing a quart of oil every 2 days. My vehicle is almost identical 2005 Tahoe. Thank you for the tips on the Xtra gaskets needed for the valley pan . God bless. Great job on the video,,, again! Lol
hey did any of the leaks come back after doing all these repairs?
also, what were the names of all the gaskets you had to buy? just so i dont miss any
Wish I could help more with your questions. About a year after doing the repairs, I had no leaks. Then I gave the truck to one of my sons. He still has it, but hasn't mentioned any leaks, so maybe it's still good. Regarding the gaskets, I'll see if I have any records on them, but I just moved and are most likely gone. If I find them I'll reply here when I do.
That was one of the nicest, most thoughtful videos I've ever seen. Very thorough Thankyou...this helped me out on mine perfectly
Glad it helped!
What did you use to clean all that?
To be honest, I don't exactly remember. However, I think I mentioned what I used in the video.
Good job cleaning. I'm chasing leak in the rear of my 2002 4.8. Just got the tranny out. I'm going after: rear seal plate, valley, sending unit, & knock sensors. Already had replaced valve covers.
Haven't checked in here for quite a while. I no longer own this old truck, my middle son is now the owner and it's still going strong the last time I checked. Made it all the way to Utah from California, then back and forth from Utah to California and then from Utah to Missouri. It's still a beater, but does what he needs it to do.
Maybe u get this and hopefully can respond those intake gaskets do they work i ordered some and I was thinking that the steal shouldn't go between the heads and intake but how's it going 5 yrs later
The best way to work on a truck this size is to take off the front wheels, you'll have better leverage...just my two cents 😉
Right on
Great Video. One of the best I have seen.
Appreciate that
This was great, I used a lot of this for my 03' corvette which is basically the same thing.
Glad it helped.
Good 👍🏼 job looks nice
Thanks 👍
Great job!
Thanks.
You did a great job, looks awesome
Wow nice video
Thanks
Holly moly that is bery nasty
OK, thanks.
62 years old !!!!! What you sound like a young man to me but it’s great to see people age so well, gives me hope that I will be turning wrenches when I’m 62.
I felt older than 62, but I'm cheap and didn't want to pay someone to do something I knew I could do myself.
Did mine yesterday. Very helpful, thanks.
Great, hope my video helped.
I noticed I was burning some extra oil on my 04 Sierra w the 5.3 and that it had a lot of buildup around the valve covers and under the intake plenum. After seeing where yours is dirty I think my valley pan gaskets shot too, this vid will definitely come in handy, thanks!
Good video. I have an oil leak in my 5.3 and this gave me a good idea of where to look at
What did you clean the intake valves and valley cover with ?? Carb cleaner ?
That's very encouraging! The way you describe yourself, you and I are about the same physically and agewise. You're a little younger. So I ought to be able to do this job. I only wish I was at home with my garage, instead of 1150 miles away in an apartment. It's a lot easier when you can just stop and clean up and go to bed and then resume in the morning. Here, you can't leave parts and tools lying around, or they'll walk off. Heck, the whole truck almost walked off one night. I wish it had! If I'd known I was going to have so much trouble with this truck, I would left it unlocked with the door open and the key in the ignition. A thief deserves such problems, but not me!
How did you get everything so clean with the ports still open? brake cleaner okay to get in those ports?
I used mostly Chemtool B-12, but also some Sea Foam.
U ALREADY A NEWS GUY U JUST DON'T KNOW IT. I HAVE SAME OIL LEAK ON 6.O. DID U FIX UR OIL LEAK PROBLEM ? GIVE ME A HOLLER.
even though you won't see it you should of sanded and repainted the valley cover silver..
If you're doing this to your truck I would recommend you taking your own advice. Unfortunately, I no longer have this vehicle. It was just a beater, not a show piece. I was more interested in it being functional and repaired than being pretty.
Wow. Awesome Video. Great description and pictures.
How did it run after the clean up job?
Of course i come across this video AFTER i had my intake manifold off to replace my cam position sensor, oil pressure switch and knock sensors all in the same search for that elusive oil leak from the back of the engine. Replaced everything you spoke of except the valley pan gasket amd still have my leak. Time to do it again.
Great video good information !
Great vid. I went to take the valley pan gasket n the 2 back bolts were loose😡😡 hopefully that fixes my oil leak👍👍
Thank you very much for the time and effort it took to produce this. It was very helpful.
Oh god, now I’m scared to do mine 🤣
Awesome video
I give you five star. For what great job you did. Especially for this edge. We love you for you're honesty and great work we love people like you
Does the throttle body butterfly supposed to have some play, i mean when took it out to clean it and pushed in, it went in about 1/4 inch
Mine didn't.
Awesome video! All the info you need to do this job. Amazing how you got everything so clean. Great job
Great job! Looks really good! I am actually doing the same thing to my 03 surburban lt. Lots of work and hours like you said.
