? Timing Belt Change & Rear Valve Cover Gasket

[chuckb]

when having my mechanic change my timing belt on my 95 ES300, should it be cheaper to have my rear valve cover gasket changed at same time? is there stuff that has to come off for belt anyway(intake,etc) that is part of valve cover job?

thanks alot

No it should not. There is no reason to take the upper intake manifold off just to change the timing belt & water pump.

Chuck what mileage you at? You should have a timing belt & water pump changed every 90,000m.
