I guess I shouldn't be surprised when my 35 year old car had problems. My 1991 Toyota Camry (same model as 1989 and 1990) with the 3SFE engine (Same as Rav4 1997-2000) blew its valve cover gasket. I used to think this was a difficult repair but as it turns out, it is very simple.
I buy all my parts through RockAuto (no sponsors)
