I know 5 bolt are supposed to be better than 3 bolt. But if you use loctite, does it matter? Any brand lighter or better? And any opinions on both vs exhaust only. Everything I've read says only do exhaust. Thanks

You're welcome..... but please, unless you're a cute girl, preferably 19-25 and blonde, take that comment back......FYRARMS said:Thanks, Andi. You are so cool it should be illegal!![]()
Replace the hoses... they connect the cam covers for the PCV / crankcase ventilation system.... Also replace the PCV valve preventatively IMHO.....LythiumRuSH said:A bit off topic but seeing Andi's engine bay made me think of mine...Will split crankcase hoses affect performance? I have mine taped back together after I split the suckers taking them off for a spark plug change. What exactly do the two hoses do?
They're easier to take off if the motor is warm...LythiumRuSH said:Thanks...I figured i'd have to replace them. However, are they supposed to be extraordinarily hard to take off? In fact, when I replaced my plugs, I just sort of jimmied them off with pry bar. Maybe causing them to split?
when they are older, the can get pretty stiff and dont want to flex much. just order a new set from toyota and you should be fine for quite a while, ive had my new ones for over a year and they have been tooken off at least 10 different time and they still flex really well anc come off easilyLythiumRuSH said:Thanks...I figured i'd have to replace them.
