I was looking at it, It looks good to me. I say go for it. Btw i bought the bolt on AFPR kit from them, recieved it very quickly. I am pleased.

yea, I want to just take the cap off, but its not leaking right now and thats just one more thing for me to screw up. I'll try any little tricks to get it out.

I know what you mean, when my car did it i was like WTF?!? I reinstalled my turbo timer, that didnt do it, i checked everything out. I was about to give up when i decided to re-set the ECU, that didnt do it.. then i was about to give up again, and i thought hmm maybe i should disconnect my...

Oh, and one more thing, take into consideration that I run MAF-T in blow through, so the OEM would mean I lose unmetered air by routing it pre MAF.

Okay, I was wondering what is the best way to set up the PCV. There are a few things to take into consideration. The valve covers need vacuum, so no breathers (had to blow my cam seal to figure out why). The stock route clearly works, but there is a major vacuum leak from the port on the...

the exhaust cam seal popped right out, and thats definately where it was leaking from, but how in the hell am i supposed to get out the intake cam seal?

got it :)

yea i saw where someone had used a 10 mm socket on those bolts, i ended up using that approach and it worked fine for me.. now i've got big troubles.. i'm an idiot and dropped a screw into the lower timing belt cover. Doh'

Sounds great, Thanks!

I was going to take advantage of having the weekend off, but thank you for the offer. If you could show me what i need that would be great! No rush tho, I work tonight so i wouldnt get started removing the cams until tomomrrow morningish. once again thanks!

Thanks man that sounds great. You mean my emial, right? hottscennessey@mail.com

Okay, i have a few quesitons. 1) Do i have to remove the valve covers to do the cam seals? 2) How do i remove the cam gear without it moving? Whats the best way? 3) If it were the cam bearing shell leaking, wouldnt i have oil behind the metal plate between the valve covers and the cam gears...

it fit my lexus afm no problem

looks like i took too long to get back to you, sorry, but it looks like you got it figured out. Yes i meant the ground for the battery.

thanks guys, wouldnt only the leaking cam seal allow the oil to get past that metal cover and into the timing belt compartment?

okay i found the leak, and now its really pouring out. The leak is from behind the exhaust cam gear. Is this the cam seal or like johnathan said, the cam cap? I can litterally see the oil behind the gear, in front of the metal black cover. can someone give me guidence? I've never heard of...

oh and do i remove the timing belt from the front main seal?

ok cool, i was reading and it looks like it could be the front main seal, the lil area with the rtv sealant (but doesnt look like it), OR the cam seals? I realize the cam seals are pretty easy, so i'll have to keep a watchful eye on it and see exactly where the oil is comming from.

hmm, so is it easiest to pull the motor?

The past couple days i've had a very strange oil leak. It seems to be very unpredictable. I know that my hose from my valve covers down the the block is cracked at the top, this leads to a small ammount of oil on the driver's side of the block. The real problem is the leak near the timing belt...
