• Q: How to replace the Lash Adjusters on 2006 Chevrolet Equinox?

  A: Here is the procedure for valve lifter replacement: start by taking out the valve Rocker Arm cover and then the lower Intake Manifold before removing both the valve rocker arms and pushrods. The procedure requires removing the lifter guide bolts and the lifter guide but you must organize the valve lifters for their correct placement during reinstallation. Use prelube gm p/n 1052367 (Canadian P/N 992869) or an equivalent to coat the lifters before reinstalling them at their original locations. Reinstall the lifter guide by applying threadlock gm p/n 12345382 (Canadian P/N 10953489) or equivalent to the lifter guide bolt threads before bolt installation at 10 nm (89 inch lbs.). The final steps involve reinstallation of valve rocker arms and pushrods followed by placing the lower Intake Manifold and valve Rocker Arm cover in position. Leak inspection should also be performed at this time.
