@Fishwerks, if it doesn't make noise you have no credibility in my opinion. Thats how I justify all the noises mine makes.... :sad:
Thanks for the kind words in regards to the video!

More stuff that I've done recently.
-Valve Cover Gaskets - Replaced with OEM Gaskets from the Dealership - $40 a piece -_- (I get an employee discount though :lookout
-Spark Plugs - Denso OEM PN#K16TR11
-NGK Wire Set - TE66
I resorted to @Jon's write up
Valve Cover Gasket Replacement
All done at 200,xxx miles - Also changed Oil
Thanks to [MENTION=107971]derpiful[/MENTION] for the help on this one. Ran into all sorts of little annoying problems.
PICS
Did not take many pictures as we were chasing the sun and the cold.
Old plugs were only 2 years old so they looked fine
Upper and Center Manifold looked awesome! The oil is from my fingers :clap2:
Mine were BAD. We also found out that every single bolt on my Valve covers were finger tight. It also has never been removed by anybody... This is the first time its come off.... Nice Toyota. So the seal may have been fine but it was never tight enough. It's been leaking as long as I can remember as well.
Insides looked awesome, It was really hard to keep all the dirt and crap out, did the best we could... Thats why we have an oil filter....
All back together, took about 2-1/2 hours. Which really isn't terrible for how many bolts come out, torquing things to spec, cleaning, chatting, etc.
