I was wondering if there was a How to or some guidance. How much does this job cost at Toyota?

I don't know if your talking about a valve angle job, a valve angle job helps to give a better seal at the top of the lift, and also helps to increase velocity of flow. and if thats what your talking about then i highly recommend, not doing it yourself. Theres a lot of work that goes into angling valves and most shops wont tell you what angles they use. my advise is if this is what your asking about, then let a pro do it, youll end up saving your self alot of headache and prob money.

if he was talking about a valve angle job i'm sure he might have said...valve angle job...

a vavle SEAL job you can see in Hurley's thread

though its not a how to its an idea of how its done, not really the easiest of jobs, but not crazy hard either. If you don't have a good back ground in mechanics of cars i'd leave it to your shop to do.

Damn, its a freaking $800 job. Oh well it's not eating up that much oil. Need to save up faster for the 3S.
