Hey everyone in the next 2-3 weeks when i get a chance and parts im looking to replace a few of the lifter's on my 2001 2.4l cavie. So i just figured i would ask if anyone has any tricks or has any heads up for me while doing this project as i have never torn into my motor before. Any help would we be greatly appreciated! Also the motor is out of my can and on a stand. thanks again guys!!

Lifters in a OHC engine. Good luck even finding them.

Why replace just a few lifters? Any reason you want to change them?

Unless there's alot of wear on them, you'll be wasting alot of money. They go for 15-40$ a piece X 16 = expensive.

Tinkle, you might want to double check before answering that way.

i got a tick coming from the lifters was messing with the oil pressure sending unit, for got to put it back in. It was spitting oil out the hole then started getting a ticking sound. I was told its the lifters but we will see for sure when i get this engine torn apart. I already have extra lifters sitting at parents house just gotta find them they got about 4000 miles on them. Oh and have some faith ill find them its just taking the actual enging apart is new to me but working on my car sure is not.
