2000 Toyota Tacoma - Valve Cover Gaskets

Toyota Tacoma Valve Cover Gasket Set

The valve covers on your Toyota Tacoma seals the top of the cylinder head to ensure that oil stays inside of the engine. The valve covers are sealed using a gasket. After some time, the valve cover gaskets may start leaking as the gasket shrinks, cracks, or becomes brittle. You may experience smoking under the hood, which can become a fire hazard as oil leaks onto the hot exhaust manifold. Low levels of oil can cause damage to internal components of the engine, as well as engine seizing if not addressed. Keep your Tacoma's engine running smoothly. Replace a faulty or damaged valve cover gasket set as soon as you notice that there is a problem, and ensure your oil is in good condition and at the appropriate level. O'Reilly Auto Parts carries valve cover gaskets and the oil change supplies you need, including oil filters and the tools to get the job done.
