- Coat the valve lifter rollers with clean engine oil.
- Install the valve lifters.
- Install the valve lifter guides over the flats on the valve lifters, making sure the rollers of the valve lifters are properly aligned with the camshaft lobes.
- Install the valve lifter guide retainer.
- Install the valve lifter guide retainer bolts.
Important: If a new camshaft is installed, replace all the valve lifters.
Important: If using the valve lifters again, install the valve lifters in their original location. The valve lifter guide retainer must contact all of the valve lifter guides. If the valve lifter guide retainer is bent, the valve lifter guide retainer must be replaced.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the valve lifter guide retainer bolts to 25 N·m (18 lb ft).
