I am at 105k and have done nothing major to the motor. I changed the water pump/timing belt at 80k spark plugs every six months oil every 3k general stuff

Yeah that is basically what i have done. IM starting to notice when i change my oil it is a little low. The top of my engine right above my header im starting to notice a little oil so im wondering if that seal on the valve cover is going bad.

Wow, you gotta love Toyota's...184k miles and the biggest complaint you have is a possibly leaky valve cover

Yep that is pretty much it. I put it in the show today b/c i was driving down the interstate and all the sudden i heard a tapping. You really cant hear it at idle but when you gas on it you can hear it. I think it is an exhaust which sucks b/c i put on my lce header about 5 months ago so i wouldnt think the metal gasket would go bad that fast but who knows. So far it has been a great truck. :clap:
