Head Job ;D

Postby DSM_Lara » Tue May 29, 2012 4:58 pm

Getting ready for a Head Job... Leaking little oil from the rear valve cover :(
When I did change all my belts at 87k I forgot to do gaskets. Its always one thing after the other, hopefully after this I can finally do other things to this car.
Replacing all Valve Cover/Intake Gaskets, Spark Plugs, Oil Change, Trans Flush, and NST Crank Pulley.
Everything is mostly OEM from the dealership... I'm never going to put cheap ass parts in my car.
Please let me know if I'm missing any other parts (any other gaskets???), since I'm lifting mostly everything up... I know its a good opportunity to get a S/C, we will just have to see.

17176-62030 Air Surge Gasket
17177-20020 Intake Gasket Rear
17278-20020 Intake Gasket Front
11193-70010 Spark Plug Gaskets x6
11214-20010 Cylinder/Valve Cover Gasket Front
11213-20020 Cylinder/Valve Cover Gasket Rear
NST Crank Pulley anodized in Red

More stuff :D
25627-20010 EGR Gaskets
90480-18001 PCV Valve Grommet
90919-01194 Spark Plugs x6
19037-20011 Spark Wire/Cord Set
16261-20010 Water By-Pass Hose
16571-20020 Upper Radiator Hose
16572-20020 Lower Radiator Hose

It'll be slightly more work, but since you're halfway there, I'd recommend replacing the coolant transfer hose under the lower manifold...and those gaskets

Change the PCV valve grommet 90480-18001 I would also do plugs and wires. What about the EGR and EGR pipe 25627-20010 gaskets?

Gabe, I searched how to do the Tube Seals and your right they look like they are a PITA...

PCV Valve, EGR Gasket picking it up tomorrow. Any recommendation of what type of plugs and wires I should get??? In other words probably the best performing products.
I'm hoping after this last maintenance my car should be running a lot smoother.

This Link will help me out a lot as a reference. ^_^

OEM it is, I guess $11 a piece per plugs won't hurt the pocket. :wink:

Really like those TRD struts. I should have bought those instead of the JIC's.
