infinity oil galley gasket fix Part3

[@roadrashgt6239]

so many people probably lost it everytime you drilled the bolts in without threading with fingers first haha. very good video, im not so worried to do this after watching. thank you.

[@slowassz3385]

I was stressing about doing this job but you made it look soo easy gave me the confidence to get it done myself.

[@AngelGarage]

I'm glad. That's what it's all about

[@AngelGarage]

Also if you are going to do the work don't be afraid to take lots of pictures and or videos. It helps alot

[@slowassz3385]

Thank you for the advice I will make sure to do that. Seems the biggest issue for me is going to be torquing down the gasket screw hiding behind the cam phaser teeth.

[@AngelGarage]

@@slowassz3385 I did too. I left that one for last. As I tightening all the ones I was able to get to I started to get a feel how much torque I was using with my hand. And I tightened that one by hand in between the teeth of the cam. I later found a long reach allen wrench with a socket I could have used with the torque wrench.If I did this you again I highly recommend to find top dead center first where all the Mark's line up. Will have to take out the tool holding the engine in place.

[@prosser369258]

Anyone looking to do this yourself. Just take your time, take lots of photos during disassembly, and have confidence. Saved $2k by not having it done at the dealer

[@mrpistonrecaro6483]

just done mine..took me about a 8-9 hours start to finish..first time doing one..no i didnt have to remove the front end..just put it in gear brakes on to break harmonic pulley lose,i reuse everything even gallery bolts..bolts are not the issue..is the paper gasket..cant hold so much oil pressure..loctite helps with that..had fun doing it

[@Wigwhom86]

How did you get the pulley off once broken loose?

[@adanarceo4636]

Thanks for sharing sir. It’s a hell of a job to replace those galley gaskets but I think it worth’s to save money. Very good video. Thanks again.

[@DTUFINOPhotography]

Great Video.... i'm getting my gallery Gaskets, waterpump and head gaskets done on my FX35... should have it back by tomorrow or monday. My heads were slightly warped and they fixed that.

[@m3clubracer]

Hey kids, put blue Loctite (shake it up) on the galley gasket screws or they will vibrate lose and the gasket will blow. This is the most common reason why they blow out. Also the water pump O-rings have a blue and tan mark on them. One is forward and one is rearward but don't remember which one goes where. He puts blue in the rear. Take care not to rub them on the impeller or you may nick one. Also, also DO NOT put anti-seize on spark plugs. Put a small dab of grease on the two small doughnut O-rings 10:39 on the top gasket cover so they will stay in during assembly. Kids on low in-lb torques DO NOT hold the head of the wrench, you will retard the torque. Let the gasket maker set up for 24 hours before starting the car. Angel, thanks for a detailed series of videos.

[@AngelGarage]

I try. I'm no expert, but I try. Thanks

[@spindeep23]

Love video low volume but like video wish saw from start to finish may have to get a Chilton

[@wer170]

Doing my gallery gasket right now, you’re a brave soul not setting the timing 😂. Very good tutorial, nonetheless.

[@AngelGarage]

I marked the chain and the sprocket. But yeah if I do it again I will set the timing next time. Thanks for watching

[@torqueypunisher5743]

The most in depth video I've seen on the gallery gasket. I've came back several times for reference. Just finished up the job only question I have is do you have the torque specs for the 2 bolts underneath the oil pan. Thanks in advance and great job on the video man.

[@AngelGarage]

Thx i appreciate that. I got the torque specs from the nicoclub.com website. I can't remember off hand . I would have to look for it.

[@AngelGarage]

I'm thinking it's the same torque spec as the timing cover

[@torqueypunisher5743]

Thanks for the reply. I've looked around I got 3 different numbers 13, 21, and 41 foot pounds I went with 21 just to be on the safe side but from the layout I see from nissan says 13 which I feel is to low for the upper oil pan. Guess I'll know for sure after I start her up tomorrow thanks again though.

Скажы,а это акиуально только для 3.5 или 3.7 тоже имеют проблемы с прокладками? Присматриваюсь к ФХ , 3.5 по цене дешевле чуть,но вот как с прокладкамы дэло,если у 3.7 все гуд,то ну и нахер этот 3.5 .

[@Soravia]

Replacing every cheap part you can reach is the correct way. Labor costs more than parts.

[@lajay409]

I wonder if you replaced the oil pump also with the water pump and timing chain how much is the labor cost ? I have a 2004 Infiniti fx35

[@AngelGarage]

@lajay409 i didn't replace the oil pump. But I did replace the water pump. I didn't replace the chain. It looked like it was in good condition. I was quoted $3,000 to do the work

[@juanq1364]

Just finished up thanks for the information!

[@iztheterrible]

im about ready to do mine. 2008 g37 journey. 175k mi. what if the chain skipped some teeth? then putting it back in the same place with the marking pen marks might be the wrong timing? . one mechanic video showed that when you put the tensioners back on then they need oil pressure to build up right before you start the car for the first time. when car is ready to start , first pull fuse to fuel pump, then turn the motor a little, then go and pop the fuel pump fuse back in, then fully start the engine. said it prevents the chain from skipping becasue the tensioners need oil pressure to build up a little inside from the cranking of the engine before it actually starts. i dont know, have you heard that.? thanks , this was a good video. i was able to see stuff i couldnt see in the other vids. 😊

[@AngelGarage]

Great point but remember I'm not a professional mechanic, everything I learned is from bits and pieces from all the videos I've seen and tried to make a more comprehensible video that people can follow and put it together in one video, Plus what I read on the manual. im sure there are steps I missed that might be important. I have since driven 5,000 miles and no problem what so ever and didn't loose any power. All I can say is make a video of your self and post it

[@iztheterrible]

@@AngelGarage thanks, yours is very helpful

[@AngelGarage]

@@iztheterrible that's all I try to do... be helpful. My warranty expired and I saved myself at least $3,000. With the money I saved I bought a jd2 tube bender, and an omni pro 220 welder. Just imagine what u can buy with the money saved.

[@GuyX2013]

That's cringy watching you use a drill right away without starting those bolts by hand first.

[@_TheManInBlack_]

youre the best i plan on doing this soon what torque wrech do you use? i know its a husky but do you know the model?

[@AngelGarage]

Thx I don't know the model. I got it at Home Depot or lowes, I can't remember which. I got it because it can torque all the way 9 lbs. Good luck.

[@AngelGarage]

I know I didn't do it. But if you do decide to do it, make sure you are at TDC. You may need to spin the motor 20 times to get the dots to line up properly.

[@SemperMortem]

Everything seems far less intimidating once you get the front clip of the car off and the accessories disconnected. I just bought a 08 G37s coupe and I just wanna see what I got myself into. lol

[@lazarorivera3384]

Never use a hand drill to work on an engine. Use a torque wrench and try to use a star pattern when torquing.

[@AngelGarage]

Good advise. I say, Don't do as I do since I'm not a certified mechanic.

[@lazarorivera3384]

Don’t worry about it my friend just a small tip. How did your engine turn out?

How long did you let your silicon gasket for the complete cover set up??? Just curious if you had any issues with yours? The bottom pan seal is very important!!!

I get nervous about stripping threads. Plus I go a little passed the click on the torque wrench. So it'll come out the same.

[@pushhrodd01]

why would you use that gasket 😞 Z1 sells the new and reinforced one. So does nissan. you used the same one that fails.

[@AngelGarage]

The reason the gasket failed was because 2 screws backed out allowing pressure to blow by. I didn't know about the reinforced one till later on.

Great guide but I definitely would not pay you to do mine.
