This is one of the best explanation videos I’ve seen in a while👍
You are good lecture I enjoyed your video great job Sir I wish I was near you
The number one idler sprocket you spent time on does go bad especially if a little sludge gets into the oil feed, I would recommend if you go to the trouble of replacing the belts you should really do all bearings now while your there.
Wow Excellent video you explain things very Clearly great video keep up the good work
Nice job good explanation 👍
Litterally the best explanation video. 👍 perfect

Hi Jack. I got a 2GR-FE that came out of a Lexus RX350 2007 for a head gasket replacement and exhaust cam gear replacement. Got a brand new exhaust cam gear replacement and after coupling things back with the right valve timing, starting the vehicle there was so much clattering sound within the engine and engine wouldn’t idle again. Brought down engine back and discovered the exhaust cam gear for both banks, the new ones while turning the engine were making a knocking noise. Pulled them off and got a used one from a known good engine. Since then noise continued and engine starts but refuses to idle. Did a compression check on bank2 and had 175, 180 and 185psi respectively on cylinder 2,4 and 6. I watched your video and you spoke about the round o-ring at the engine block which the timing cover protects. Could it be I lost oil pressure somehow. Is there any idea as to what’s going on. Thanks in anticipation
Have good experience and knowledge ❤ like it ❤
If you're trying to find TDC and don't have a long screwdriver you could also use the oil dipstick
Thank you. Just in time. I got to do my aunts Lexus is250 next week. Blown head gasket.
Oooh that’s a fun one!
did u get it
hi great video. I am in the middle of replacing exhaust cam, however the little clocking nub (dowel pin?) on the camshaft does not fit into the hole of the new gear. I have tried both OEM and rockauto replacements. would I have to buy a whole new camshaft? File down tehe inside hole? kind of at a loss
It should fit when timed correctly, especially if you’re using a Toyota gear. Are you sure you’re lining everything up properly? It will be hard to tell anything without seeing what you’re doing.
Great video with clear presentation. How many miles were on that engine? Were there any noises that pointed to the exhaust VVT gear coming loose and walking towards the timing cover? I have a 2007 Camry with same engine at 250,000 miles. Runs great, no noises, oil changes by me every 5000 miles.
Keep the videos coming
It has 132,000 miles. So here’s the thing: the customer towed the vehicle in because the oil cooler lines ruptured. He claims he never heard any weird noises, but when I was disassembling the engine, I noticed that the water pump bearing was so bad that the pulley was about to fall off! There’s no way that wasn’t making noise! The VVT gear wasn’t quite touching on the valve cover yet (I checked and there were no marks on the timing cover). But it would have eventually started touching and making a ticking sound.
Great video! Where did you get the parts from ? OEM or aftermarket online ?
I got the parts directly from our local Toyota dealership.
Mr. Jack, Have you changed con rod bearings on these 2gr v6 motors? If so and if you know how, can you explain how to purchase an OEM sized bearing for con rods. Apparently there can be different sized bearings from journal to journal and engine to engine straight from the factory. I called the dealer and they told me i needed to look for number stamps on the block and/or number stamps on the bearings themselves. Thx where on the block would the stamps be and how would they be interpreted to be able to order oem sized bearings? Thanks!
I’ll be honest, I’ve never changed bearings on this motor and I really wouldn’t know how to help you with that. Sorry!
ما السبب تتبديل cam gear ،هل هناك ضرورة؟
hey man i have big questions and i really need help on my 2008 honda accord is there any way i can contact you to get help …im having trouble with the timing on a 2008 honda accord…i know you did a video which i been referring to the whole time but my camshafts pulleys are turning but eventually it stops at a point and resists please help man
Send me an email to doctorjfletcher@gmail.com
and in the email give me your name and number and I’ll call you tomorrow.
Hey man good job.
Please can you help with possible solution to a rattling sound on back 1 after i change tensioner and timing chain on a 2gr fe engine on a 2009 es 350.
After completing the job the engine rattles and will not stop rattling.
Any help will be appreciated, thank you
Did you use OEM parts? That would be my first question. Unfortunately, you’re probably gonna have to pull everything back apart and take a look. If you used OEM parts and it still rattles then something wasn’t installed correctly.
dude i exactly have the same problem, is it rattling at the idler gear in the middle? i had to take everything apart and now just replaced chain, idler gear, and tensioner, putting the case and everything else back together for the 2nd time, @jackhfletcher could i send my timing marks to your email make sure
same for 2grfks?
how much for it
عمل جيد
man after doing this job i didnt set the correct position on the idler gear, now i hear a rattle from it and getting P0017 and misfire codes, gonna have to re do it huh :/
Man, that sucks! Yeah, you’re gonna have to go back in there and double check your work.
where are you located
Katy, TX
Great video. But the 1 thing i came here for, you skipped. Im going to be getting my block cleaned, and i want to remove my idler spocket. I know the service manual says its only 44ftlbs, but ive tried as hard as i can and it wont budge. Anyone know if its reverse threaded?
Awh man! Now I wish I would have shown it. That bolt is regular thread (right hand thread). Put a long breaker bar on it and it should break loose.
спасибо большое за грамотное видео! очень благодарен за подробное описание технологии замены грм!
I love your work, and I will like to know more from you
