i recently did the valve cover change and catch can install over the weekend on my 09 yukon xl SLT. everything seemed to go smooth.

I torqued the valve cover to 106 inch lbs. and also for the catch can used high temp permatex thread sealant on the fittings and tightened the clamps on the vacuum hose to the PCV system.

however, since the installation, i have started feeling this little vibration whenever i press on the throttle a little bit at low speeds. i can actually feel some vibration in my foot at the accelerator pedal. Now, this maybe just me over thinking it but could a leaky valve cover installation or leaky catch can connections cause this kind of vibration ?


Thanks in advance
