previously on: my stalling 93 camry was towed to my neighbor's house and I tried to figure out what's wrong.
1 week ago: checked engine codes with a wire in the diagnostics panel. no codes. tried to move it from my neighbor's house to mine and it wouldn't start. Initiate plan A: change the spark plugs since it's the easiest thing. today: changed the spark plugs. good news: it starts and I was able to drive it up and down my street for 5 minutes with no issues. bad news: oil in 2 spark plug tubes. also I accidentally ran over my new torque wrench. oops. initiate plan B: change the valve cover gasket. will need to buy gasket and another fucking ratchet so I can use 30mm socket. still cheaper than towing my car to the shop so far :) @Dakooder @Kyuubi4269 cars man ...

Those 4 banger valve cover gaskets are easy, also make sure the gap on your spark plugs are set to .032 with a gap tool

This may shock you but manufacturer tolerances on mass production parts isn't perfect. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
