2001 Buick Century Lash Adjuster Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the Lash Adjusters on 2001 Buick Century?

  A: The first step involves taking off the left (front) and right (rear) valve Rocker Arm covers and the upper and lower intake manifolds before continuing. You should start by taking out the valve rocker arms and pushrods after removing the lifter guide bolts and extracting the valve lifter guide before finally removing the valve lifters. Clean all gasket surfaces using degreaser while performing surface cleaning on valve train components. Experts should examine both the valve lifters and cam lobes for any signs of wear. Before returning the lifters to their original positions apply a layer of prelube (GM P/N 1052365 or equivalent). Fasten the lifter guide while observing the fastener notice in service precautions then tighten the bolts to 10 nm (89 inch lbs.) torque. Reassembly begins with placement of valve rocker arms and pushrods into position after marketers should reattach the lower and upper intake manifolds and put back right and left valve Rocker Arm covers.
