GREAT video! I want to change spark plugs and coil packs on my daughter's Rio today only to find a lot of oil where there shouldn't be any. This video is immensely helpful! Thanks a lot
These cars are so damn simple and easy to fix up and parts are cheap. Surprising that they are quite reliable. I have a 2006 Rio base model with a 5 speed with 188k miles no lights or anything still going strong as hell. Only thing i need to do is the struts, but im saving up for some lowering springs or coilovers. Its actually quite a nice car.
So true 👍🏼
You’re right they are reliable! My 2010 Rio has 301k miles on it. Lower main seal leaks oil but I’m not gonna worry about it. Just gonna do the valve cover gasket and tube seals next week. Same problem with coils getting oil on them and causing misfires.
I got 314k miles 2010 hyundai accent same engine as rio. Running good going do this valve cover job soon
Just saved $500 by watching this video.
I'm glad :)
Try using a plastic scraper instead of a flathead screwdriver to remove the old the gasket. The metal will cause chipping and you don’t want that.
Enjoyed every bit of this and it is so clearly understood.
You should start the tightening sequence from the center bolts and rotate outwards .
Watched the whole thing and don’t even have a Kia 😂 . Good job
I appreciate it boss 🙏🏻
😂
Dont need anti-seize on NGK's, they use a thread that will crumble instead of seize
Went smooth as silk! Good video 🙂
Thanks!!!!
Great dude. Much thanks for the video. No I can replace the gasket!!
My pleasure 🙏🏼
Was hoping to see you do the tightening down of the bolts. I had issues getting the 2 bolts on the side in.
Everything else was great
I had to put a little pressure on the top left corner to tighten the bolts on the side, that's how I got them in. Good luck 👍🏼
Well done brother..keep it up 👍
Thanks boss!
Try some engine flush on the next oil change. Looked pretty sludged up there.
Will do! Thanks.
Great effort, well done
Thanks Boss 🙏🏻
So could the oil that's leaking into the coil be the cause of a misfire?
Absolutely
Yesssss
Yes. You need new rubber seals.
Ah amazing! I have changed my coils like 5 times in three years. Noticed oil on the coils and minor leaks under the car. Gonna do this! Question: are the old coils toast if they misfire? They are literally 3 months old and all 4 went out .. again!
What seal did you use ? And what did you use on the spark plugs ??
Very nice..Good job👍
Thank you 🙏🏼
Great job 👏
Thank you 🙏🏻
How did you go about getting the back top right bolt on the head? It's in a tight spot and I haven't been able to get that one bolt
Thank you for the upload! I have a Hyundai Accent with same engine. I've been chasing a misfire for too long. There's a chance it's my PCV valve- after changing nearly everything else. Found oil all over my expensive new spark plugs, so I need to change those gaskets. What valve cover gasket are you using (appears to be quality silicone), how much, and does it come with the gaskets for the spark plug tubes? Thanks!
I bought the valve voice gasket from Autozone and it did come with 4 spark plugs tubes. Here is the Autozone link www.autozone.com/external-engine/valve-cover-gasket/p/fel-pro-valve-cover-gasket-vs50705r/217584_0_0
@@Curiousminds80 thanks for the reply. I already got it done. The old sparkplug tube gaskets were shot, and likely the cause for the vacuum leak. Runs much better despite having one of the valve cover bolts break. Now to get that out and replaced!
Teacher where the thermostat of that Kia is located
Profe donde se encuentra el termostato de ese Kia
Uh... Went a little crazy with that sealant, eh? Lol How's she running now? Any updates from the buyer? And was it running when you first bought it at auction?
I know lol...I was just worried about leaks. It ran great after the valve cover gasket and the buyer is happy with it. It was running good when I bought it from the auction. It just had a leak around the Valve Cover and the Spark Plugs.
@@Curiousminds80 Thanks. Having a similar issue with my car, except it completely stopped running. But it looks like it completely blew out the old gasket and one of the tube gaskets because of a failed PCV Valve.
my kia rio 2011 model valve cover is broken, Please advice a link or Part code for Valve Cover
I bought it from the Autozone store here in Florida.
Mine has water in the spark plug well/hole. How is that possible?
Flooded maybe?
I had oil on my spark plugs is it the gasket valve cover or the rings
It can be both. I would replace both the valve cover gasket with the rings that go around the coils to prevent any oil leaks to your spark plugs. Good luck 👍🏼
Is it the same gasket for the 1.4 engine too?
I'm not sure. When you order it online, make sure to mention the size of your engine so you can get the correct gasket.
What the torque?
I didn't follow any torque recommendations to be honest with you.
Hey bruh i have the same car as your but my engine code is telling me it a 1.4L engine instead of 1.6L so what is your engine code?
Mine is G4EE
Mine is 1.6L
How do you take the plastic cover off. That sits on top of the engine?
Is there torque specs for the valve cover bolts?
I'm sure there is but I didn't have the tool for it
6-7 ft lbs. but some recommend 5 ft lbs. because the plastic cover can crack if you torque wrench is too far out of spec
@@southpark159753 Thanks for the info! I'll have to get the torque tool 🔧
Boss bakit tumutunog air cleaner Kia ko 2009 model tas hirap humatak pag binibigla ko ung selenyador
I'm sorry but I didn't understand your comment.
@@Curiousminds80 looks like Filipino. google translator says "Boss, why is my Kia air cleaner 2009 model making noise, it's hard to pull when I start the selenizer"
everything but getting the rubber rings out!
No torque specs
I haven't followed any torque specs but I just tightened enough.
