Video is not intended for a DIY at home job. If you payed a bit more attention, at the beginning of the video I make it very clear by stating that I will NOT be providing a complete “step-by-step” video. Solely intended for a technician that would like to have a quick overview of what goes involved into doing this particular job. Usually I would like to say, “I appreciate the feedback”, however, your inability to thoroughly comprehend an informational video is out of my control.

Top gasket usually goes bad simply due to age. It’s straight silicone, which over the years will get damaged and contaminated due to the engine oil and bypass gasses.
