Cam plugs

All -

I'm still gathering parts to do my valve cover gaskets. I can't tell what I need for cam seals. Are they the same front and back or are they different parts?

@gunny1005 can you help out?

That helps on two fronts, actually. I see the part number for camshaft plugs (11188-62010), but only two of them. Aren't there two front and two back?

The second front is that I ordered that part number from Toyotapartsdeal.com and they sent a half-moon. I need to take that up with them.

 

I believe you only have two camshaft plugs and they are indeed at the rear. If there are some on the front, I have not heard of this.

 

The cam plugs are only at the rear - the intake cam shafts come out through the front. I wouldn't bother with the camshaft seals in the front unless they are leaking. I think Toyota did this so they only had to make one casting and use the same heads on both sides of the engine.

 

Thanks, guys. I should have watched Timmy's video a second time.

 

Cam seals are only in the front, They should have cam plugs in the back. PM me and let me know what you are looking for and I can send pictures and pricing.

 

he's probably talking about the half moons, those you can just pull out, clean up, and reseal with rtv or oem fipg

 

No, I thought there were seals and half moons both front and back. It explains why I couldn't find the parts for the front.
