🔧 FEL-PRO VS 50530 R Valve Cover Gasket Set - Premium Quality Cover Gaskets for Ultimate Engine Protection Review

Bought a month ago for my Toyota Camry, I looked at the description, I thought it was an easy job so I watched some YouTube videos of the job, it was difficult! I hired a mechanic and had to pay $100 on top of that and after 320 miles my car is still leaking, I'm losing oil, I have to fill it up a quarter every day! I'm not sure what the problem is but I thought it would be a permanent solution and I was wrong! By the way, it came in blue, yes, blue!

I replaced the factory gasket with a cheap one (light greenish bluish color) 3 years ago and noticed a leak at the rear of the engine and at the spark plug holes. I took a cheap one and compared it to this one. The main difference is that this one has "creases" at the bottom to seal the uneven sealing surface and the seal is more durable than the cheap ones. A few weeks have passed since the installation and everything is going well. I wouldn't expect it to last as long as the cheap ones…

My old rocker cover gasket burned out on my 2001 Toyota RAV-4 with 358,000 miles. It had a weird random leak behavior. Sometimes it was perfectly sealed for thousands of miles and other times it leaked all my oil for hundreds of miles. I took the valve cover off and the old gasket fell apart like feta cheese. Not only did this Fel-Pro pad fit perfectly, it was a delightful blue instead of practical black. It's a soft, stretchy rubber that feels like sealing shouldn't be a problem. Like a hot…

All the Fel-Pro gaskets I've used have been of high quality and last a long time. I tried cheap eBay for a test and after 10,000 miles it was already hard and leaking a lot of oil. The old Fel-Pro I replaced it with ran over 100,000 miles before it started leaking and even then it was still soft. I suspect the cause of the leak was that it had been compressed for over 100,000 years and could no longer seal airtight. I suggest paying an extra five or ten dollars for this pad which lasts ten…

I was very impressed with the quality of this gasket. The one I received was blue in color and was packaged very well to protect the seal and keep its original shape. I've been looking online for a rocker cover gasket that is comparable in quality to an OEM Toyota part. This Fel-Pro pad got good reviews so I decided to give it a try. I installed it on a 2006 Toyota Camry after I started leaking oil around the valve cover. I had over 150,000 miles on my Camry so the old gasket was just worn out.

RTV silicone can ruin your engine. Your engine has a vacuum of -5psi for the brake booster to work. If you apply silicone to the valve cover gasket, even the silicone fumes can damage the engine. It WILL be absorbed. You have to rely on the seal. However, to install you will need to put a gasket on the aluminum head to keep it from moving when you turn it over to throw it in. If it's slightly out of gravity, it will pinch or fold and leak. So just use the 3M Gasket Adhesive in multiple places…
