WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Hummer H2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
When reusing valve lifters, install the lifters to their original locations.
- Lubricate the valve lifters and engine block valve lifter bores with clean engine oil.
- Insert the valve lifters into the lifter guides.
Align the flat area on the top of the lifter with the flat area in the lifter guide bore. Push the lifter completely into the guide bore.
- Install the valve lifters and guide to the engine block.
- Install the valve lifter guide bolt (1).
Tighten: Tighten the valve lifter guide bolt (1) to 12 N.m (106 lb in).
- Install the cylinder head and gasket. Refer to Cylinder Head Replacement - Left Side or Cylinder Head Replacement - Right Side .
NOTE:
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.
