  A: To replace the valve lifters, remove the Cylinder Head and the gasket first. Next, remove valve lifter guide bolts and then pull the valve lifters and guide out keeping in mind that there may be some lifters that are stuck because of gum or varnish deposits. In case of necessity, it is possible to use j 3049-a (Valve Lifter Remover) to help remove the valve lifters. After removal, categorize or label them in order to reinstall them correctly, then clean and check the valve lifters. During the installation process, when reinstalling, use the used valve lifters back in their original positions. Encourage valve lifters and engine block valve lifter bore with clean lubricated oil engine, and valve lifters subsequently be introduced into the guide bore lifter establishing flat area of the valve lifter's upper part to-route working in association with the lifter guide bore's flat area and press all the way into the guide bore. Bolt the valve lifter and guide onto the engine block while observing the fastener precautions, and then bolt on the valve lifter guide bolt with 12 nm (106 lb in).
