This video was a huge help for removing the valve cover to get to rocker arms that have failed. Really great detail in disassembling everything to get the the valve cover. Taking the inner fender off was well worth the extra 10 mins of work. There is no way to do it without access through the wheel well. Anyone doing this will end up hating the wiring harness, transmission dipstick, and various other things you will have to fight with every step of the way. When she says “you name it, it’s in the way,” she wasn’t lying. Good luck to anyone going in this deep in their engine. Thanks again for the great video.
Why would you take the inner fender well and outer fender off and all that extra crap out. when I found it easier to remove the battery box/fuse box. I didn’t wanna remove my built in work bench
do you guys have a video showing how to replace a lower intake manifold on a 2013 jeep wrangler sahara unlimited ??? lmk please
Where we can find her to fix my jeep?
Less work if u just take out battery tray that will give all the clserance
Great job!! Very Thorough and Very knowledgeable!! Excellent!!
one of the best and clearst repair videos i have ever seen
I have a ticking rocker. After watching this video, in other words it's a pain in the butt…
Excellent video. The best advice tip was to remove fender flare and wheelwell liner, because that gives the BEST access to the rear of the valve cover (for PCV valve removal) and side of the valve cover (for lower nuts).
Loosening and moving the transmission dipstick tube is also the best advice I can give, to access upper PCV valve tore bolt and to make valve cover removal easy.
Once you've removed the fender bolts and round trim buttons at ground level with the wheel off, the whole fender can be lifted off the flat trim tabs and then they can be removed with pliers much more easily and put back on the fender. They're in a slot just for this and much less chance of breaking them. Can do it this way in 3 minutes once the tire is off.
In the hour and 17 minutes +, I realized 2 things: 1) she is calm and knows what she's doing, and although a time consuming job, it is a do-able, and 2) if my covers start to leak, I'm putting in a hemi, it's easier.
What about the drivers side?
And that's the easy side!
Great video, helped me get to my rocker arm to replace the ANNOYING ticking sounds and my valve cover was leaky come to find out as well
Thank you for the very detailed video. Much appreciated.
How much would this cost me at the dealer??
Great video! All the detail is amazing. Thank you.
What about the other side? Lol it's harder to do the other side I bet.
Thank you so much! I followed this video to get the valve cover off to replace some worn roller rockers that was causing ticking noises. i couldn't have done it without this video, thanks!
the valve cover bolts aren't meant to stay in place. pull them all the way out
Looks like Chrysler made this Jeep to only be serviced by the dealer. And I was thinking of buying one… No thanks!
Congrats to this lady. Patience is a virtue.
06 Jeep was still a TJ and was a different engine 4.0/2.4 and the JK from 07-11 also was a different engine (3.8) the 3.6l penestar was only offered 2012-2018 in the JK
Spray wd40 on red safety clips for injectors to help free it up. Any clips on this motor hit it with lubricant to ease removal.
Lucky for me my battery is on other side because I am from south Africa where everything is on the right(correct) side.
She is so patient. I am busy with same job and oh my. Thanks for the helpful vid
I found on a forum people torquing the valve cover gasket at 44 – 55 inch lbs. Which is acurate?
I'll be doing this soon to fix "the 3.6 tick". Seems like it might be easier to remove the battery and battery tray rather than wheel, fender inserts and flares? Thoughts
