Valve Rocker Arm Replacement - Left Side

Valve Rocker Arm Replacement - Left Side

Removal Procedure

1. Remove the left camshafts.





Important: Ensure each camshaft follower remains matched to the original stationary hydraulic lash adjuster (SHLAs) and original location the components were assembled in.

2. Remove the camshaft followers from the left cylinder head.
3. Clean and inspect the rocker arms.

Installation Procedure




1. Apply a liberal amount of lubricant to the roller pivot pocket (2) and valve slot areas (1) of the camshaft followers. Refer to Sealers, Adhesives, and Lubricants for the correct part number.





Important: The follower must be positioned squarely on the valve tip so that the full width of the roller will completely contact the camshaft lobe. If the followers are being reused you must put them back in their original location.

2. Place the camshaft followers in position on the valve tip and the SHLA. The rounded head of the follower goes on the SHLA, while the flat end goes on the valve tip.
3. Install the left camshafts.
