1999 RAV4 3sfe engine rebuild part 2

Good work and thanks for the video! The valve on the power steering pump is there for a good reason. The pump has to work hard when you're for example parking and turning the wheel a lot while the car isn't moving. A lot of load on the power steering system occurs. To help the pump in these high load situations this valve exists - at higher RPM the pump has easier time dealing with all the load... It will work without this valve, but you'll shorten the power steering system life. - so you did the right thing! :-) If you want to keep your Toyota reliable you have to just accept that Toyota knows better than you. I'm not saying all Toyota cars are great, but if they are not, Toyota lets you know and tries to solve problems that somehow slipped into already produced cars (for example bad airbags recalls, bad piston extended warranty engine changes, etc.).

Good Question Just slightly under $3000.00 This place is a little weird though. They want you to take the oil pan off before you bring the engine in and they won't put the oil pan on. I still don't understand why they just wouldn't charge extra for that. Also you have to take intake off and exhaust, which I figured that. But I was surprised that they wouldn't put the oil pan on and they were annoyed with me that I had not taken it off even though they never told me to. But the engine is running great and doesn't burn oil its been over a year now. Thanks for the question
