(93) 3VZFE Valve Cover (Front) WTB
1993 V6 Camry Wagon
Cracked mine last night, 51lb seemed like alot, I even told my self after taking them all to 25 that was enough. Got to 35 before the front corner snapped. Luckly no oil leak yet. Maybe some epoxy on it?
Anyways, looking to buy.. Please pm or email septic@nicita.com
Thanks

RE: (93) 3VZFE Valve Cover (Front) WTB
Thought I would go out and check the valve cover, since its was the front / Right one.
Are you supposed to replace the 6 bolts that hold them down? I decided to check the bolts, and found one slightly less ft-lbs of torque different, I guess I had missed it when I changed from 30 to 35, I pulled out the wrench, dialed it to 35 and went to apply slight pressure. Head snapped right off.
Something rotten in Denmark Here now, cover cracks at 35, bolt at 35, lexus 3vzfe and camry 3fzve manual spec 51ft-lbs, guess I better go check my torque wrench, I guess that could be the issue? Its a rather new Allied (I know, cheap, but shouldn't be that LAME). Anyone know how to test?
Thanks.
