8 years in and still a super handy resource. Thanks man. I just took the plenum off today, gonna get to the covers tomorrow. Out of curiosity, are you a fan of silicone line to replace the vacuum hoses? 260k miles, couple of nasty cracks, the pcv hose was completely petrified and broke in half when I lived the manifold off.
Thanks for the thorough video on the 3.0 v6, hopefully i can get this done soon. but i'm so surprised barely anyone noticed you didnt disconnect the negative terminal!!!! and then i saw that socket set right between the battery terminals!!!! hahaha i had to google it last time cuz i forgot which terminal youre supposed to disconnect.
Dude wish u did it on the fuel injectors step by step I need so much help on my 89 yoda 3.0 I just need a good video so I won’t mess it up and how much did u torque down the 4 intake manifold bolts
great video I'm a 3vze not to many hahaa I have had my second one now for 6 months and have been trying to figure out these vacuum hoses I'm completely stumped it's almost as if there's extra. Beasically if you wouldn't mind doing a vacuum hose routing video I would very much appreciate it been all over the web getting diagrams I have been to Toyota themselves and they can't figure it out right. Thanks again either way hope all is going well -Dom
Great video! I jusr did this job, and it resulted in....a leak...the drivers side still leaks despite rtv in the fsm specified locations. Used fel pro as you did. Cannot figure it out.
+MaksWerks I did exactly what you did, except I did not put rtv between the gasket and the cover, nothing in the fsm specified doing that. Maybe thats why? I put my 8 beads where specified in the manual. Dont have a tq wrench but i went palm tight with a quarter inch ratchet, most would consider that "loose".
Ya you have to put down a smooth layer all the way around, and put a little extra in those spots. then tighten it pretty tight without stripping screws.
Needs the round cam seals on back of head replaced also..... those need done same time as valve cover gaskets. Out of sight, out of mind for most newbies.....
This is an awesome video thanks so much. I wasn't looking forward to doing my 93 4runner, but now I think I am ready. Thanks bro.

Great video! years later, it’s a great resource 🫡
Thanks! Glad its putting in the work.
THANK YOU !! Exactly what I needed ! I got a little nervous about the metal socket holder between the battery posts ...
thanks man, so useful, great video, has given me confidence to try myself
thank you sir

Really good video, thanks!
Thanks for the video.
Video really helped thanks a lot!
Im doing the rear cam seals as well. Much easier to do when plenum and valve covers are off. They leak worse than the valve covers on my 3vze.....
To do plug #5, passenger side rear, take out the canister. Two bolts, three hoses. Still won't be able to see the plug but it can be reached.

Are there cam bearing gaskets to replace
Great vid, thx👍🍻

MainStreetAutoDetailing I have the same problem any help
Is that a long metal socket set going from the positive battery post to the negative ?
its a socket rail. If it had touched it would have been bad. Don't do what I do.
if oil was leaking from a valve cover, would that cause some smoking from that leaked out oil burning on the engine?
If oil drips on the headers it will def smoke/catch fire, and that's bad.
any plans of doing head gasket job? seems to be a common issue with these yet no good how youtube videos
No need for that project. Its long gone.

Ya. Use RTV, torque to spec.

Cool video ! thanks for sharing ! can i ask.... Torque specs for plenum bolts ? Did you gasket glue the plenum gasket (paper gasket) ? Thanks :)
Just turn it until snug, add a little, and make a click noise with your mouth :)
JK. this was too long ago for me to remember torque specs.
@@Makswerks1 Thanks ! Doing my 4runner. This really helped
Is there a part number for the pcv valve part and rubber. Just trying to be sure the Toyota parts direct diagram is a bit sketchy
There is but this was quite a while ago, and I do not have it off hand.
Sankei part number KP-101
Grommet: NAPA # 630-1041
Thanks, great how to video
How did you disconnect the fuel pressure regulator without fuel going everywhere?
Couple of options.
1. Disconnect connection at fuel filter and get gas on your arm.
2. pull fuel injection fuse/relay and crank the engine a few times
Awesome! Thank you very much!! I'll go for option 2
Few drops, its not a big deal *looks down to a steady stream of coolant dripping off the t case...
Awe man I hope you didn’t do all that work without doing the cam caps and the half moons
Weren't leaking, but never a bad plan.
Might as well adjust those stupid spacered valves while you're at it.
