99 Cavalier Lifter NoiseDoughboy21kd 04-30-2004, 11:31 PM Has Anyone ever has lifter noise in there cavalier.....and if so how do you go about fixing it? cavyman 05-01-2004, 09:02 AM r u sure it's the lifters?, cause the rear bearing on my alternator went and it sure sounded like the lifters to me untill i ran it for a bit without the belt on Three_Fingers 05-01-2004, 10:01 AM Depends on what motor ya got and what kind of valve train. The V6's and OHV fours got lifters/rockers like the v8s and are adjustable/replaceable the same way. The OHC fours, like my 2.0 use a static rocker arm between the valve and a hydraulic lash compensator (lifter) and the cam holds it all together. Depending on what part of the valve train is making the noise-it really isn't a big deal to fix. OHVs-just loosen the rocker and turn it out of the way to remove the pushrod and lifter. OHCs-you need to buy or build a special tool to push the valves down so you can get the rockers out and then you can get the lifters out. Cam replacement on the fours is a piece of cake. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
