LIM gasket

[zildjian102]

Okay I'm chaning the LIM gasket on saturday and i know its been posted here before but im going to get the parts tomorrow morning because the car isnt running right now due to a broken MAF sensor. So what are all the parts i will need to accomplish this job?

lim gaskets, black rtv, 6 injector 0 rings, coolant elbows, oil, coolant, s/c gasket, t/b gasket, maybe some new fuel rail connectors, mine broke one time. Your going to want to wash down the lifter valley with oil. I would also do valve cover gaskets.

someone else will probably chime in if i forgot something

Add enough oil and 2 filters to the list. Wash the valley down w/ oil as stated, then drain BEFORE restarting. Change oil and filter using cheap oil and run for 10 min or so. Then drain again, change filter and refill w/ the good oil.

x2 on the valve cover gaskets AND grommets.

Not to thread jack but what if any sealant do you use on the lim bolts?

I believe its a teflon based sealant w/ PTFE in it.
