Montero SOHC 6G74 Valve cover gaskets/fuel injector seals/rear cam cover/spark plugs & wires service

This is going to be a long video of the maintenance I did on Groot. In this video I replace the valve cover gaskets, fuel injectors with new seals, rear cam O-ring seals, and new spark plugs and new wires.

All this maintenance because of the strong cold fronts that passed through Florida which affected the gaskets and seals that were most likely due for replacing. There is a lot of time lapse footage in this video and I tried not to skip too many steps if you are trying to get a idea of doing this job yourself.
