Re: '99 LX 3.8L Bad Engine Noise UPDATE!!

Very sorry to hear about the big problem. No, I did not know the engine used roller-type cam followers. Normally you would think that would indicate "good engineering". Plastic lifter guides...that settles the engineering question.

Just for clarification ... had you ever RTV'd the intake plenum piece in place?

..Also, do you think possibly this engine was re-built before?
