The fun with the oil filter housing and valley pan gasket replacement on the 4.2 - Nogaro Nitwit 2018-04-11 08:46:21 (556 views)
- Been there/done that. Nice feeling when it's done & there aren't any more drips in the driveway! - LGL 2018-04-11 22:59:53 (232 views)
  - I call it "rustproofing the driveway...and the garage floor..and the road in front of my house" - kinderutz 2018-04-11 23:00:53 (257 views)
- Good as new! Ill be doing this same job on this soon.......just purchased prior to X-mas. - n8henn 2018-04-11 13:19:43 (440 views)
  - Yeah, definitely needs a carbon cleaning on those direct injection engines - Nogaro Nitwit 2018-04-11 13:31:00 (254 views)
    - To what extent, I guess we'll see. Not sure if it's ever been done, just making sure maintenance - n8henn 2018-04-11 15:25:30 (252 views)

        There are, my guess is that they hide under that small cover in the center. There is no valley pan   -  kinderutz  2018-04-11 13:53:42 (349 views)
        
        right on! Thats what I was referring to as the Vally pan. I already have the gasket........  -  n8henn  2018-04-11 20:04:27 (240 views)
      - I had them checked and the tech said they looked good   -  Nogaro Nitwit  2018-04-11 10:19:01 (290 views)
        
        They have a spring and 2 rubber o-rings.....I would have changed them for cheap insurance..  -  kinderutz  2018-04-11 11:15:07 (267 views)
        
        I think he said he took a look after sucking oil out   -  Nogaro Nitwit  2018-04-11 11:20:16 (284 views)
- Don't be surprised if you're oil loss isn't cured. These engines can burn it at an alarming rate. - CJH 2018-04-11 09:06:11 (311 views)
  - Agreed, I replaced all of these gaskets on my 4.2 and the oil consumption was only reduced slightly. - JustMtnB44 2018-04-11 10:12:59 (387 views)
    - Gave a few of those salutes doing that job. - CJH 2018-04-11 17:40:23 (250 views)
    - Ugh - Nogaro Nitwit 2018-04-11 10:19:34 (254 views)
      - Everytime I came across one burning oil at the dealership the cylinder walls were scored....look - kinderutz 2018-04-11 11:47:43 (341 views)
        
        Oh joy. I will look into the thicker oil - Nogaro Nitwit 2018-04-11 13:29:21 (246 views)
  - We shall see. It sure feels like a massive puddle underneath - Nogaro Nitwit 2018-04-11 09:20:22 (282 views)
