Oh buddy! Much gratitude to u friend for taking the time to make this vid and share the info.It took a lot of grief out of the project and got me go n with a good process .
Great video, but what vehicle? Also, did you have to use a torch to heat up the bolts so that they would loosen when you took off the exhaust manifold?
I notice the breather/tiny air filter on top of your ccv valve on the top back side of your valve cover? how well does that work for you? What effects does it have? I have bad oil blowback on mine and im curious if this could help aside from just cleaning/replacing the ccv valve itself. Any takes appreatiated :)
So the idea is that you don’t get the oil blow by back through your throttle body or your air filter. I had to take it off because it wasn’t CA compliant. But now that I’m out of CA I plan on putting it back.
So i went to the dealership with a few questions. They told me the exhaust manifold doesn't get a gasket.(right?!) Ive been watching many of these videos on this job and this is best one out of 20 or so. Thanks for the video. My motor also had the same bolt back out as the one at 6:50. Anyone know where i can find it? Dealership says they dont make them anymore and cant seem to find the correct one.
Justin Truck so the dealership is correct. They didn’t come with a gasket. However I have had a leak there twice before putting a gasket there. That is why I put one in. Since this video I haven’t had a leak. So I would say it needs one. But make sure it’s a good quality gasket and not the cardboard type. Thanks for watching.
Actually oem was metal to metal on my jeep. Go figure. I’m dot sure what engineer designed that idea. This is the second set of gaskets I have put on this jeep.
Jason Rock Yes it’s fuel injected, and yes there is a fuel rail. I think I miss spoke when I said carburetor. Thanks for catching that. Someone got to keep me honest.
707Kidd garage Not really sure how long I drove with the bad manifold gasket. The jeep has always had a slight tick, but I noticed it got louder. I I had to make a educated guess I would say about 3 months.
I've had my truck for about 6 yrs......the manifold gasket has been leaking the whole time. Not really a leak, pieces of the gasket is sticking out the top lol
@@OFFAxisBuilds very true....Oklahoma doesnt have any inspections anymore. Heck my truck was wrecked, totaled, and issued a salvaged title before i bought it, but for $700 and 160,000 miles its a damn good truck
Please stop saying carburettor, you are talking about a fuel injected 2.5 jeep. The item you are describing is a throttle body, not a carburettor. This throttle body only delivers the air to the engine cylinders, not any fuel
