APEX Automobile Parts Inc Engine Valve Cover Gasket Set P/N:AVC813
Help seal the joint between the valve cover and the cylinder head and keep engine oil inside the top end with the APEX Automobile Parts Inc Valve Cover Gasket Set, part number AVC868S. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2004-2006 Toyota Camry V6-3.0L / V6-3.3L, 2001-2010 Toyota Highlander V6-3.0L / V6-3.3L and 2000-2006 Toyota Sienna V6-3.0L / V6-3.3L, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.
The valve cover gasket sits between the valve cover and the cylinder head, where it helps keep engine oil from escaping the valvetrain area. Heat cycling can harden or shrink a valve cover gasket over time. Signs that an engine valve cover gasket set may need replacing include oil seepage along the valve cover edge, oily buildup on the cylinder head, or a burning-oil smell if oil drips onto hot exhaust parts. If a leaking valve cover gasket is the cause, this set replaces it. Clean both sealing surfaces before installation, and follow the vehicle service information for tightening specifications and any sealant requirements.
See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of vehicles and engines.
