FAQ for Other Repair Info

Q: What is the installation procedure for the Valve Rocker Arm and Valve Lash Adjuster?
A:
Lubricate the valve Rocker Arm and fill the valve lash adjuster with oil. Install the valve rocker arm and valve lash adjuster. Rotate the engine counterclockwise enough that the cam lobe fully depresses the spring again. Remove the EN-47945 from the cylinder head and repeat as required. Install the camshaft cover.
Q: What should be noticed when compressing or releasing the valve spring with the valve spring compressor and when removing or installing the valve stem keys?
A:
Compressed Valve Springs have high tension against the valve spring compressor. Valve springs that are not properly compressed by or released from the valve spring compressor can be ejected from the valve spring compressor with intense force. Failing to use care may cause personal injury.
Q: What is the installation procedure for the Camshaft Cover?
A:
Install a NEW camshaft cover seal into the camshaft cover groove. Install NEW ignition coil seals into the camshaft cover grooves. Place the camshaft cover on the cylinder head. Install the camshaft cover bolts. Position the ground wire to the camshaft cover. Ensure that the anti-rotation tab is seated against the cover. Install the camshaft ground wire bolt to the cover. Install the electrical connectors to the camshaft cover. Install the ignition coils. Install the intake manifold.
