    Then you remove the cams and install it back, how do you align the marks¿ You set the torque and rotate with no belt to align with cover¿ 6:15 The new lifters push cams to other position. Thanks for help

      Yes align marks on the cam cover, u can use a tool for this to hold them

      @@ALs_Autos I ask this because after putting the camshafts back in place, both camshafts are pushing and not letting me align them with the top cover to insert the locking tool between the camshafts. Thanks!

      @AntiPalmeritas yes u need to use a 50 torx in the middle to move them both into position at the same time. Little fiddly

      @@ALs_Autos Now I understand why this step is not shown in any video. You need to be an octopus to move both camshafts in order to insert the lock. Thank you very much for your quick help. On Monday I will receive the new camshaft bolts. Here in Spain they are still available with the reference GM90466737 and they cost around 15€ each.

    Good job M9. What are lifters and why you replacing them? Asking for a mate

    • @ALs_Autos
      @ALs_Autos  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Lifters are the connection between valve and camshaft jist being anal since there was actually nothing wrong with them could class them as a long term maintenance item

    I've changed my lifters with INA ones two days ago. But when I start the engine after it's cold the tapping noise is still there maybe for a minute or two.
    Are they suppoused to quiet down after some time?
    Thanks

    • @ALs_Autos

      Give it some Time, failing that check oil pressure with a gauge 👍

    Just done my lifters exactly like you’ve done yours, and Iv got a hell of a tick :/ is it something that will quiet down when they wear in? Or torqued correctly etc

    • @ALs_Autos
      @ALs_Autos  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Appreciate the comment mate 🤟 the lifters usually take some time to quiet down I've just done a z20let corsa build and the new ina lifters are still a little noisey after 450 miles, other thing to double check is oil pressure make sure its at least 1.5bar at idle
