[@denayrielwatson5115]

Thank you for sharing! Question; what did you clean the cover and the car with?

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@denayrielwatson5115 My Pleasure! I used parts cleaner to clean the valve cover

[@DKLGalactus5]

Don't forget the RTV at the round corners tips of the V.C. on the gasket.

[@Chu3505]

😂😢Yeah..Especially valves covers gaskets replacements in those models of Toyota Camrys and Honda Accords.If you don’t Putting those RTV sealants in those small cracked corners holes.You’ll have to doings it again around in 1000 miles laters.Because they’re having notorious problems with at engines oils splashes to going down to those small cracked holes to those Spark holes.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@DKLGalactus5 Yes!

[@Chu3505]

Every cars makes and models must have it old valves cover gaskets changes replacement at around 90-100 thousand miles as for regular maintenances.So your engine oils don’t splashes going down into your engine Spark Plugs holes.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@Chu3505 Good!

[@teamlows]

Invest in a seal puller. Makes quick work of tube seals

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@teamlows Oh Really? I will look into it

[@bbmd2200]

Hello, Sir. Comment tu vas. Tu te portes a merveille? I have a question: I cleaned a throttle body over a year ago, and recently, I have been having a P0507 code. It takes a long time for the idle to come down. Would a damaged throttle body cause a high idle speed code? If the TB was damaged, wouldn't the idle stay either high or low? J'attends impatiemment ta reponse. Merci.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@bbmd2200 Yes! A Damaged TB would caused high idle speed! make sure your TB Wiring is good!

[@bbmd2200]

@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair I may have to check the throttle blade to see if it moves or watch the TP sensors for glitches. If the rpm goes down as temperature increases, the TB may not be damaged( weak spring or broken teeth on the little wheel inside the TB). My fear is that I put too much pressure on the blade when I was cleaning it and caused damages to it) The idle coming down as temperature increase makes me assume that the TB is fine) I may have to start looking elsewhere. Thank you for responding. Have a wonderful day.

Should you put a dab of sealant at the corner in the valve gasket.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@190055joe Yes!

[@HoodsGlobal]

****The tranverse mounted V6 engines are not easy to replace as you may have to remove the plenum/ throtle body and other stuff. I am a DIY guy, I replaced spark plugs on one of those, it wasn't that straight forward.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@HoodsGlobal Yeah! The V6 are a bit harder
