Great video, kina suprised to find that 02 -04 had metal covers and the later years went to plastic with the groove for the seal, I think that the grooved seal is a better design.
Great tutorial!? Couple of questions: why oil change after this? What to look for after removing the covers? What else to change while opening the top engine like this?
I would say buy a brand new oil drain bin and drain it out into a brand new bin but that’s probably just as much as buying coolant. Chances are it would like new coolant anyways. People don’t change coolant to often
I didn’t drain anything and tilted the reservoir when removing the hoses from it . Lost maybe a half gallon tops if that from the entire system . This includes the bit that came out when removing the heater hoses from the firewall . The resevior I hooked back up when done and it was still nearly full. As I put the hose on the resevior while it was tilted so it wouldn’t leak . I see no reason to completely drain the radiator for this. Just top off when done and burp as needed. If you have old coolant it doesn’t hurt to swap it out but the coolant on the one I was working on was relatively new .
Hey, question: I just took off my valve cover and noticed a good amount of oil puddled in the back of the valve head, is that concerning? Or is that normal?

So TRQ is 1A Auto ??? I love these tutorials. This is a long ass job
9:40 THANK YOU! Couldn't remember how to route the crankshaft ventilation. You'd be surprised how hard it is to hunt down a photo or a video of this.

Excellent Demonstration.
You make no wiggle room look easy 👍🏾

This is so helpful..but what about power steering fluid boiling over...is that do to Air? Will running the heater in high fix it?
Absolutely brilliant… make it look so easy which it ain’t..
Helped a bunch.. Good job.. Guessed at 10 inch/pounds
Please do head gasket replacement on the same model
So I need to change my gasket. But I don't have the air blower. What do you suggest I can use in place of it to remove debris
Is that Chris Fixx??
Hi is the same for a 07 grand Cherokee or no
No Grove to put the gasket on the engine cover.
Explain
I had the same issue. As you probably already found out the bolts with the grommet/ bushing pushed all way in hold the gasket in place.
Yep, there is no groove in the valve cover to put the gasket into.
Is there a way to do this without having to drain coolant?

Excellent.
where can i find that breather filter?

Do you drain the oil out of the engine?
Thanks for this video….
my coolant refuses to drain as so, it sort of just drips. What should I do?
Not really a long job. It's just multiple steps of simplicity.😊
105ft lb of torque on these 20 yr old 10mm bolts that have been thousands of heat cycles is way too much. They'll snap.
It's 105 in/lbs not ft/lbs which is a little less than 9 ft/lbs.
@@GilGoFastRT 🤣 Details matter.
Do you use glue
Might as well change the valve seals.
23:53 about the time I would have said fu*&(^ lol Thanks for the video. Heading into the garage to perform this service on my Commander. 🙂
Can i hire u to come do this?😅
Had one broken bolt ( stud) Does anyone know where to get one ? Autoparts stores and 2 different jeep dealers and no one knew. Any ideas ?
