2002 Buick Regal Rocker Arm Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the valve rocker arm and push rod on 2002 Buick Regal?

  A: The tool required for valve Rocker Arm and push rod replacement is an electronic torque angle meter (J 36660-A). First remove the valve Rocker Arm cover(s) as well as the Rocker Arm bolt(s) then clean the parts before storage for reassembly. Start the procedure by taking out all valve Rocker Arm(s) and then eliminating push rod guide plate(s) along with push rod(s) when all rocker arms are gone. A suitable solution should be used to clean the push rod(s) and valve Rocker Arm(s) and bolt(s) and guide plate(s). The valve Rocker Arm bolt(s) require comprehensive removal of thread adhesive before use. Insert clean engine oil to the push rod ends before placing them into their proper locations. Proper deployment requires the fastening of push rod guide plate(s) and valve Rocker Arm(s) by using the appropriate part number fastener to prevent harm from improper tightening. The valve Rocker Arm bolt threads receive gm p/n 12345493 threadlocker or equivalent adhesive which allows torqueing the bolts to 15 nm (11 ft-lbs) through the electronic torque angle meter (J 36660-A) to achieve a 90-degree bolt rotation. After placing the valve Rocker Arm covers in position verify that the valve train produces no unwanted sounds.
