1997 Nissan 2.4L Intake Gasket Replacement (Part 1) -EricTheCarGuy

In a way this is a sequel to the Nissan Altima Misfire Diagnosis Video. It would have been a REALLY long video if I posted both together. In fact I had to sp…

0.o wow, i think removing the hood, pulling axles, unplugging harnesses and
hoses, lifting the engine with a hoist, doing that job would be easier on
this car !

Jesus Pizarro says:

How much would a job like this cost?

Larry Elford says:

best camera and lighting work I have ever seen in a car guy video. Thanks.
Toughest spaces to show and you did very very well. Thanks again.

jorgito tampico says:

Thanks Eric your trick with the magnet save the day and generally talking
your video was really helpful keep doing what you do and I found a way to
reach the center bolts just remove the throttle body and can get the arm
between the engine and the manifold its hard but it can be done better this
way God bless

Did this on my volvo 740 and it is a breeze compared to this! First real
bit of work I have done on a car too. Very satisfying

Shane Sullivan says:

On KA24s its easiest to get intake bolts with an angled wrench and loosen
little by little

Mick Lovin says:

this is basically the same motor just turned sideways you’ll have an easier
time with the 240 because its back to front tons of room compared to this
configuration

Lester Dela Cruz says:

I’m not even sure how to open the hood of my car but there is something
about these videos I find facinating

What’s the name of the piece he puts on the roof of the car at 7:07?

halosux4life says:

main reason why i HATE front wheel drive/AWD

Jonathan Smith says:

It would probably help you sometimes to wear a helmet cam

Jonathan Smith says:

I always liked it when he speeds up the vid lol it makes jacking up a car
look fast

Abraham Perez says:

Wow u can take a beating from that job I would had chuck the car out and
work and my ef just to relax lol love ur videos.

mbrutus5 says:

Fell in love with you at 28:00. Doing a head gasket on an identical car and
spent nearly an hour trying to pull the intake back (last step before
pulling the head off). Couodnt figure out how to get to the last 4 middle
bolts until now.

ozzfest12349 says:

It’s all about practice. Just take something small off over and over again
and try to learn some skills and techniques on remembering stuff.

erictold says:

I wish I could lift my car that fast… lol.

EricTheCarGuy says:

And we begin the 2 part saga that is the Nissan 2.4L intake gasket
replacement. Good times.

FARTNOISE100 says:

Nissan has no procedure your on your own!! all-data said the the same thing!

Mpclinton30 says:

Could you make a video of how to replace the headers on an oldsmobile 88 or
a car with GM’s 3800 series engine

AutoShop101 says:

In response to puro8869, I looked your 94 Nissan Maxima up on Alldata and
the codes are accessable at the ECM. If you have a DOHC there is an LED
(red) that will flash codes. If you have a SOHC there is a green and red
LED to flash codes. There is an access hole with a slotted selector. Key on
rotate fully to clockwise position, hold for 2 sec. then rotate counter
clockwise fully. This put the ECM in mode 2 and you can then read the code
by watching flashing light(s) base on your engine.

jtreign9097 says:

the ka still lasts forever .. mine faces the wrong way as well..lol

JamesonMobile says:

what happened to part 2?

JamesonMobile says:

lol i think the magnet was the most invaluable tool in this job

ecorico22 says:

what year? what kind?

Lola Llamas says:

Hey Eric I have a 2003 Impala and I want to know how you can get rid of the
Anti-theft system?

Rasheid Doctor says:

in the early 90’s yeah. now nissan mostly gives budget engines, you gotta
pay a ton a money for a decent engine.

ferrariowner123 says:

That guy only uses, Snap-On, Mac, and craftsmen for his hand tools. He is a
big believer in the nice tools for what you are going to be your bread and
butter.

80sMetalIsForever says:

Eric, I’ve learned more in three days of watching your videos than multiple
trimesters of auto tech in high school. Your explanations and general
mannerisms are superb. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world.

meanmopar426 says:

>> so as the rope can keep the valves from falling down inside the
cylinder. (Do disconnect the – battery cable, and use a wrench to turn the
engine NOT THE STARTER) And remove valve springs, *old seals, *replace with
New ones.

FoVision says:

Isn’t it bad to use a torque wrench as a breaker bar like that? around ~20
mins

wtbm123 says:

LOL. Hate the hidden brackets and bolts.

Clearanceman2 says:

If you don’t have kids, you should have kids. You are so patient.

Eli70mod says:

Eric you’re the man. Patience is a virtue and no better example than with
this pain in the a** intake gasket. You never cursed or seemed flustered
just focusing at the task at hand. I was cursing at the bolts just watching
your work on the car! I do own a 94 altima with that same engine by the way
so at some point I will have to attempt this rather tedious task. Great
videos keep up the good work.

Mike Allen says:

I just did this to my ’01 2.4 Altima. If you remove the starter you can get
to more of the upper intake manifold bolts from underneath. It definitely
tests your patience. Going back together isn’t quite as bad, some of the
bolts fight you pretty bad

Brendan Cunningham says:

hondas are cheap as shit

singletrackdestroyer says:

why do you prefer to not use magnetic trays?

kiefer1234566767 says:

time for a cordless impact driver!

FoVision says:

Ah, the red and black handled one looked like some clicker torque wrenches
I’ve seen. Thanks
