Cylinder Head 105 - Valve Job Basics
Valves not sealing? Valves not bent? This is how you fix that problem. In this video I outline the basic valve job procedure. Cleaning the valves, cleaning the seats, cleaning the combustion chamber and lapping the valves in to make a better seal.
Here I cover the process start-to-finish. It's the same exact process for pretty much all non-rotary combustion engines. It takes patience and perseverance to do this job, but anyone can do it. Reference your service manual for measurements and service limits. Everything else that's not in your service manual is in this video.
I apologize for not having broken busted crap to work with in this video. It's more beneficial to all of you when bad fortune falls on me because it gets well documented, and many people watching these videos are looking for answers. If you have bent valves, you will discover it quickly once you chuck one up in the drill. You'll see the face of the valve wobble around while it spins. You'll see evidence of this damage on the valve seat. If it's bad, you may see damage on the valve guides in the form of cracks or missing pieces where the valve guides protrude through the head ports. Give all that stuff a good visual inspection. ...and if you doubt yourself, never hesitate to get a second opinion or consult a machine shop. They will have access to expensive tools that you wont find in your average gearhead's garage.

LISTEN TO THIS WITH HIGH QUALITY HEADPHONES OR SPEAKERS ONLY. Like anything, it wont sound the same, or near the same unless you use high quality listening devices. Turn the bass up and enjoy. Its not obnoxiously loud at idol, and sounds pretty deep and smooth on hard excelleration, and on deceleration(engine breaking) it sounds pretty raspy and bad ass. I've never been one for an obnoxiously loud exahust, but I really love the sound and tone produced by this muffler.
I purchased it at performancecurve.com. The owner is a vendor on cherokeeforum.com and is a really great guy. The kit is around $100, but shipping across the country was $50. Even so, $150 for a cat back system like this is an incredible price.

Well this was a fun one to make. I believe I covered everything but if you feel I haven't please let me know in the comments below as well as any tips you might have to add as well. I'm not trying to make a big deal about "pound feet" or "foot pounds" I'm just trying to put that out there, the important thing is that you get the proper torque and get the job done right in my opinion, what you decide to call it is up to you.

Jeep Cherokee 4.0L Ticking Noise?
-Please Comment, and Subscribe-
Justins Jeep Cherokee started to make a horrible ticking noise. We couldnt figure it out, but eventually we did. So do you think that you will know just from hearing it? Its been awhile so heres what happened. The OBX Header came with a intake/Exhaust gasket and it was a cheap quality gasket so never use it. It got blown apart into pieces and that sound is a Exhaust leak. We got a Felpro gasket and hasnt had a problem since. Thanks for Watching!!
Jeep Cherokee 4.0 lifter tick?
2000 Jeep Cherokee Limited
I blew the motor in the jeep last Wednesday, after working all weekend, I was able to put another motor in that I bought for $150 off a guy who said it had a lifter tick. So I couldn't pass it up or the price.
It now has, brand new water pump, thermo, intake/Exhaust manifold gasket, rockers, springs, and push rods.
Still making the noise, I was hoping he just didn't check the rockers or push rods. But it does look like the head will be coming off.
Anybody else ever heard any of these noises, does it sound consistent to a collapsed lifter or two?

As I said in the video I've been asked about this video for some time and I was happy to get the opportunity to make it. Now that I think about it however I did not address ABS systems in this video however the Subaru used does have ABS. I'll probably make that amendment in a future Re: video. For the most part however this is how I do it ABS or not.
