    Probably THE best auto repair video I've seen.
    Clear, concise, zero unnecessary background information
    Great video!

    MIL just showed up for a short visit and I noticed her Highlander was leaving a little oil on the driveway. I take a look and it’s definitely the front bank…thank God… I’ve done these on the Honda 3.5L and the rear is a real pain. I report back to her my findings and tell her I’ll fix the leak and she says “why not do both sideswhile you’re in there” … yea lady… sure lol

    Very helpful. Thanks for the "double nut" idea for the #5e stud.

    The OEM spark plug oil seals if never been done don't come out easy, they are phenolic bonded to an aluminum band and pressed in. The phenolic just chips away from the band trying to extract with a screwdriver damaging the aluminum cover. I bent the aluminum band over away from the cover and then used the seal puller to complete the job.

    Thank you. Appreciate the video. I'd never seen a torx male head before, and I'd have left off the form-a-gasket (gray permatex) on those seams. My rear gasket isn't leaking as bad, I'm hoping it will keep holding. I dread taking all that apart to get to it.

    Well done Charles. I replaced our's this afternoon. Note to others, our existing gasket has been in place a very long time and has seemingly become hardwood. Very difficult removing the round pieces from the valve cover as they were both brittle and very stuck in place. Patience and prying go hand in hand.

    I have the same problem with the reverse torx screws, which are M6X1.0 fine threaded. I can't locate an M6X1.0 left hand fine threaded nut to lock in the regular nut so I can wrench it out. All the available nuts are course threaded. Can anyone please point me to a source?

    Do you need to let the silicone dry before driving?

    • @CharlesAndCars
      @CharlesAndCars  2 года назад +2

      It's a good idea to let it cure before exposing it to oil. Look at the silicone that you're using. It'll state how long the cure time is.

    • @CharlesAndCars
      @CharlesAndCars  2 года назад +2

      I'm assuming you mean the red sealant? It's just RTV (Silicone sealant) that I had. If you have to buy some I would get permatex ultra grey.

    Hi did you forgot to go 2nd round of torque 69
    Thanks I learned from your video

  • @IMADALBASRII
    @IMADALBASRII Год назад +1

    Please don't use or apply torque 69
    It's wrong and will break the small cover bolts use your hand to feel the the pressure on bolt
    I just break two bolts because of your video said apply 69 ft pounds
    I hope your good work re do the video with out use torque

    • @CharlesAndCars
      @CharlesAndCars  Год назад +2

      Sorry that happened. If you go back and look at the video again you'll see that I say 69 inch lbs, not ft lbs. I had to go check it because 69 ft lbs will definitely break the bolts...

      @@CharlesAndCars Wondering why, since the temperature is higher there and the rear head is tilted so bad so it is easier for oil to leak

      Don't know why, but it wasn't leaking so left alone.
