The secret to saving your cam and lifters is zinc. I have 160K+ miles on my 06 hemi. No ticks. I put a few ounces of Lucas engine assembly lube in the oil at each oil change. The industry removed zinc from oil about 20 year's ago and it has been wreaking havoc on engine's ever since.

You can do it(cam and springs) without removing the heads. There is a type of spring compressor that bolts on to the rocker arm assembly bolt holes in the head and allows you to safely compress the spring and replace it. You will need a compressor and a spark plug adapter to pressurize the cylinder and keep the valve from dropping, or drop some rope down the spark plug hole into the piston and bring that piston at TDC when doing it. Many ways to skin a cat. Cam replacement only requires valve covers off, rocker arms and timing cover. Rotate the cam to push the lifters away and pull it out carefully. If you want to change the lifters however, you have to remove the heads, no workaround unfortunately thanks to Chrysler design...

It has been determined that idle hours is the biggest detriment to hemi cam and lifter failures. (Police fleet service history basically proves this)Minimize idling, change oil frequently more at an engine hours interval than mileage, and the theorized true fix or prevention of the hemi tick, is to upgrade to a hellcat oil pump

@ekummel

8 ай бұрын

But be careful with "upgrading" to the Hellcat oil pump.The difference in the maximum pressure (from 55psi to76psi) will cause the computer to throw a code which disables the MDS. The fix is to put a voltage splitter on the signal wire from the oil pressure sender unit to the ECM. It's a simple two resistor fix that will bring the oil sender information back into normal range for the ECM.

Possibly when torquing rocker arms he damaged where the rocker arms ride on. So many different things, I would take it apart again and check it out.

So I have a 2013 Ram 1500 5.7 2WD, It’s throwing a Cylinder 7 misfire (P0307) and air ratio imbalance (P219A). I can feel a slight misfire while idling or stopped at a light. Not entirely sure why but when I did a injector kill test on it instead of sputtering the truck completely turned off and this happened on any cylinder on opposite or suspected bank aswell. Swapped the coils, plugs, crankshaft sensor, O2 sensors but still no luck. What I have noticed is that the 2nd time I put the new plugs in the truck lasted probably 40 miles before the engine light came on so I pulled the plugs out again and they looked pretty dark brown to black which didn’t seem normal considering they only been in there for 40 miles or less. Compression Test showed 160 or so. No smoke comin out the exhaust too. Any idea if it’s still possibly a cam or lifter failure

@@moemoe48210 i literally just hit 200k yesterday on my 2012 and no tick at all. Still using 10w-40 and MDS still does not work so eco mode does not cut on

How much would this cost to fix?

How much of a problem or concern are the metal shavings that come from the cam?

Pretty concerning, could get sucked up back into the oil pump and cause serious damage.

Hi did you remove only one engine head or both for replacement of cam???

@brettsummer5070

Pretty sure you’ll need both off. You’ll need all the lifters off the cam to pull it out and the lifters are under the heads

So I just rebuilt my engine everything is new.now I can't seem to figure out why my left side pushrods are loose.got any tips

They are hydraulic lifters so you will need to run the engine for a while to build oil pressure and seat the rings and other stuff to break in. If you rebuilt it and haven't started it yet its because there is no oil pressure making the pushrods to feel loose. There is no adjustment for hydraulic lifters, at least not in the oem lifters.

Cam was stock Chrysler MDS , so no tuning required. If you go aftermarket non MDS , then you will need a tune to have it run properly.

Yup, no need to return unless you are going with aftermarket parts that change the way the engine runs.

I know this video is 2 years old but it just popped up and I'm very interested in this topic....... BUT, since when did camshafts (auto parts) come with an "expiration date????" 5:18

Thats a good question, possibly the paper and or shipping lube that may be on there that could dry out? Lol not too sure.

That automatic cam timing adjustment they make locks you can walk that out

Nice job? I wish I had a skilled Mopar mechanic near me.

Great video but audio issues. Once you get to removing the head it all goes mute until you start installing the cam.

Sorry about that, yeah everything was good but I'm not sure what happened to the audio, it all disappeared. I'm working on a new video with audio hopefully coming out soon.

How many hours did it take. Excluding breaks or otherwise.

Just depending how fast you work, I think the book says some crazy amount of hours like around 30

I know you said that you had to remove everything that was in front and just moved the condenser over to have enough room to remove the camshaft but dam! You’re standing directly in front of the engine as if the engine was pulled out and sitting on a stand. Am I missing something here?

@houseofteks7474

Haha yeah! I had removed everything in front of the camshaft like you said, and I was pretty much standing up on a step stool sliding that camshaft out. Just as if the engine were to be on an engine stand.

Where did you get the cam and lifters from? Or did you buy a full kit?

I buy the parts from the dealer, more expensive but I’m confident that they will work.
