How to replace the intake camshaft and lash adjuster on GMC Terrain?

Starting the intake camshaft and valve lifter replacement process requires the uninstallation of the intake camshaft position actuator. Rotating the bolts on bearing caps by one turn enables the removal of camshaft spring tension before marking these caps and extracting their bolts and caps. Start by extracting the intake camshaft without separating any roller followers or hydraulic adjusters which will need to be reinstalled together. Uninstall both roller followers on the camshaft and the hydraulic element lash adjusters. Install hydraulic element lash adjusters into the Cylinder Head bores while applying recommended lubrication. You should also apply lubrication to the valve tips. The original placement of roller followers must be preserved on the camshaft and the whole replacement of the camshaft requires replacement of its operated roller followers. Place each camshaft roller follower onto the valve stem tip along with the lash adjuster before you lubricate them for installing the intake camshaft while also lubricating it. Install the camshaft bearing caps and tighten their bolts by hand first before tightening each bearing cap bolt in three equal turns until it is seated at 10 nm (89 lb in). Install the intake camshaft position actuator as the final step.

Camshaft is crucial in regulating the engagement of the intake and exhaust valves in GMC Terrain engine to allow entry of air/fuel mixture for combustion and release of exhaust gases. Usually made from iron or steel, the GMC Terrain camshaft works under different types of arrangements like OHV, SOHC and DOHC. Each affects engine performance in a unique manner, for oHC arrangement permits independent control of both intake and exhaust valves. The GMC Terrain camshaft is connected and operated by the crankshaft so that it can provide the appropriate timing for the valves. Other modifying options include a camshaft that can increase power and efficiency by changing the lift, duration, and lobe separation angle. Such changes can result in better torque and RPM response, that would suit certain driving conditions, standard driving or for high performance.
