How to replace the exhaust camshaft and lash adjusters on Chevrolet Cavalier?

The first step for exhaust camshaft and lifter replacement demands removal of the camshaft cover followed by the upper Timing Chain Guide. The camshaft sprocket holding tool (J 43655) should be installed next before removing both intake and exhaust camshaft sprocket bolts to discard them permanently. After moving the camshaft sprockets forward make bearing cap position marks to preserve original placement order. You should remove bearing caps and exhaust camshaft elements while moving the bolts one turn at a time until the camshaft loses its tension spring before proceeding with the hydraulic element lash adjusters and camshaft roller followers removal. When installing the valve tips should be lubricated before putting on the hydraulic element lash adjusters followed by camshaft roller followers to check that the alignment notches match with the camshaft sprocket. Place the exhaust camshaft and camshaft bearing caps on the engine block while tightening the bearing cap bolts three times until they reach seat position before final tightening to 10 nm (89 inch lbs.). After placing camshaft sprockets on camshafts apply finger tightness to new camshaft sprocket bolts and take away the camshaft sprocket holding tool (J 43655). The process ends with securing the upper Timing Chain Guide to 10 nm (89 inch lbs.) while the camshaft cover and camshaft sprocket bolts are finalized by a torque of 85 nm (63 ft. Lbs.) with an extra 30 degrees of rotation.
