Removal (2.7L)

  1. Remove cylinder head from engine. Remove camshaft sprocket. Adjust valve clearance of all valves to maximum value. Remove front and rear rubber plugs on either side of rocker shafts.
  2. Remove thrust plate from rocker shafts (at front of head). Remove spring clips from rockers. Turn camshaft so valves of cylinder No. 6 overlap.
  3. Rotate camshaft 1/4 turn against normal direction of rotation, and at the same time push rockers for cylinders No. 3 and 4 to the rear. Push all remaining rockers toward the front of the head.
  4. When the camshaft is clear of the rockers, both rocker shafts can be removed. Be sure to keep all rockers in order for later intallation in their original locations.
