not sure about 4afe, but the 4efe and all variations of the 5e have exactly the same seals. i would imagine all 'e' series engines would also.

easy to replace. just remove the cam cover (6 bolts), use a screwdriver or something to pry the old seals out, then push the new ones in. sometimes easier to use a socket to tap them in square.

i would replace the cam cover gasket too while your at it, as its bound to leak if its never been off before.

thanks for the info. how will i pry it out?

just get the screwdriver in there once the cam cover is off and just lever them out. as long as you have new ones then dont worry about damaging it, sometimes they can be a bit hard to get out!

I changed a set a few months ago - be careful that you do not damage the new seal when pushing it into place as it can be quite tight.

which part of the cam cover? top or bottom part?

btw does 4efe and 4efte has the same cam cover gasket?

 

[dac69er]

yes, same gasket.

there is only one cam cover. it is held on by 6 nuts. it has toyota written on it
