    I saw it. I know I did.... Pretty sure.... No. I'm sure....
    It was a write up with lots o' pics. I have looked & looked & looked some more.... I am going to have a handy video just in case & all the awesome advice on here as well (goes without sayin', but I'll say it anyway), but the write up was great & when I'm doing a job outside it's easier to have the pics handy on the phone rather than using a vid.
    I'm 99% sure it was in 1st gen.... I started going through the sticky stuff. Got through three pages & that was after doing a few general searches & checking a bunch of the posts....:frusty:

    Watch someone respond with the link in 2 seconds....

    This should be it for all 5vz-fe engines (1st gens included). It can also be found in the stickies of the first gen section

    Just did it this past weekend myself. Not a hard job, just make sure you put all the connections and tubing back in the right spot, and don't put a spark plug tube seal in backwards and have to order another...
