Great video! Thanks to you, I pulled off the job no problem. After a BG109 engine flush and new plugs, Still had some unidentified ticking- thinking maybe lifters but then discovered slight exhaust leak on one of the flanges at the pre cat. Just thought maybe, for those interested, try tightening those bolts up first (booger to get to, but a wobble 15mm socket with extension did the trick) The forward flange bolts were a little loose and it worked like a charm. It just might solve that ticking noise before diving into the bigger project?? Regardless, really appreciate your awesome instructions as my engine has never sounded better!

Just hope mine goes that well. Thx a bunch!! By the looks of all these comments, it must be very common after around 20yrs/175K miles. But on a scarey note...... On my job, I picked up an engine that had blown at 220K miles, that was also a 2000 4.0. Again, he bought his new and took care of it. He said it just simply wore out. #6 piston skirt just wore thru at the pin. So that may tell me what to expect in the future.

@projectbumblejeep4190 3 года назад

The only problem with tightening up the top (valves, rockers, push rods, lifters) is that the next weakest link is the rod bearings. Had a valve job done on a high mileage motor (300k+) wasn't more than 5k later and the rod bearing went. Lost power and started knocking and blowing smoke. Guy who did the valve job told me I should have done the bottom t the same time. I rolled the dice on it and lost. Great vid! God bless and stay well.

@Poweraddicts 3 года назад

Bud, I dont know who told you that but they are wrong. I have been building engines since I was 15 years old. I'm 50 now. Tightening the rockers has NOTHING to do with the condition of the rod or main bearings. That engine had bigger issues to begin with if that happened.

Now if you can tell me how to get the brake banjo bolts from leaking fluid then I will be happy. I tried stat-o-seal washers and it still leaks. I noticed that the rebuilt calipers from Autozone have the banjo bolt washer mating surface sandblasted and I believe thats whats causing the leak. I think I will need to sandpaper that mating surface to reduce the roughness on it so it will seal correctly. Don't see anybody else giving tips on how to do such a procedure?

@gerrywalsh5766 Год назад

You NEVER loosen your torque wrench to the point you hear rattling inside the handle. NEVER. Reduce your wrench to the lowest torque setting on the handle markings. Been using micrometer style torque wrenches for 40 years and you absolutely will throw the calibration out of whack by turning the adjuster all the way out. Minimum torque setting on the scale is always recommended.

@Poweraddicts 3 года назад

Some engines have a specific valve lash setting that can only be set by doing certain rockers at certain piston positions. Older GM engines you have to cycle the engine. Most older Ford and Chrysler engines you can just torque them down and roll.

Just completed a full 1996 Grand Cherokee 4.0 rebuild at 191K miles. Much valve train wear due to using Castrol Syntec oil with no ZDDP anti-wear additive. Everything you changed we changed, but our machinist said the cam, lifters, and timing chain also were badly worn. The bottom edge of the lifters were worn down razor sharp where the new lifter had smooth round-over. Did you use a bore scope to inspect the cam lobes for wear?

@Poweraddicts 3 года назад

Nope, didn't look down in the lifters. There was some wear on the top end parts we took out but it wasn't anything alarming. You on the other hand have much more parts wear it seems. It may be time for a new cam and lifter kit for you.

@@Poweraddicts New cam, lifters, push rods, timing chain/gears, and oil pump are installed. New pistons, crank journals ground, new main bearings too. BTW - piston slap is what caused the noise in our 4.0L, especially #3 where the piston skirt on one side was close to cracking completely off.

What would cause A dead miss on A 1990 wrangler 4.2? We put new plugs and wires, adjusted the carburetor, it has new rotor and distributor cap. The compression is 2 psi above or below 125 on all 6 cylinders. It has loud pecking sound under the valve cover on what sounds like #3 cylinder.

@Poweraddicts 10 месяцев назад

I have several manuals relating to the 4.0 and 2.5 Jeep engines. They all say to torque the rocker arms to a specific setting (not once a special tool was mentioned). I even looked in the legit service manual that Chrysler themselves use to service these engines ..... no tool was mentioned. What we demonstrated in the video is correct to Chrysler standards on a non-modified engine. That Jeep in the video still runs perfectly after the actions performed in this video. I found that video you mentioned. In that situation he mentions after a valve seat grind ... yes .. after a valve seat grind the tool is needed. I have one and I have used it on modified engines. An engine in stock configuration like the Jeep in this video, no tool needed.

Can I use this info and gasket on my 96 jeep grand Cherokee 4.0?

@ericgalindo2500 Год назад

So if they are loose and I get them tie back on… it will make difference or I really need a new rock arms ?

@Poweraddicts Год назад

They are rattling because the bottom of the rocker arms are worn. Time to get new ones.

@user-kc6fc5tc4m 11 месяцев назад

So I take it that it’s not crucial to change out the lifters? Am I correct? Because I have a 2.5 doing the same thing.

@Poweraddicts 11 месяцев назад

If the tick is coming from loose and worn out rockers then there is no need in replacing the lifters. Typically if you had bad lifters you would have more issues than just rattling a noise.

@dkhallal 9 месяцев назад

Would the 4.2 be similar process as in no backlash or clearance gap measurement?

@Poweraddicts 8 месяцев назад

The ones I've seen were like that.

Can you adjust the valves on a 2000 jeep wrangler?

@Poweraddicts 5 месяцев назад

That is a 2000 model Jeep Wrangler in this video. In the video it was said that the valves are not adjustable.

When doing the rocker arm/push rod replacement like you did in this video, did you also change out the lifters? I am personally experiencing the rattling and it gets quiet after the motor gets up to operating temperature. How far do you recomend going in on a job like that?

@Poweraddicts 3 года назад

Nope, didn't do the lifters. He and I have talked about putting a hotter cam in it. Its his rig so I have no idea if that will ever happen. I personally would do just what we did in the video. Change pushrods, rockers, and the pivots. Changing cam and lifters is fairly involved job.

@dandahermitseals5582 Год назад

Me too. I figured bad lifter. Can u change lifters in this engine without pulling head?

@v12alpine Год назад

@@dandahermitseals5582 unfortunately you have to remove the head. The holes are too small to fit the lifters throuhg.

So I fouled up and broke one of the bolts where can I get a replacement one? dealership said they are discontinued

@builtnotbought7787 2 года назад

Could running it low of oil for a few seconds make top end rattle worse, mine knocks worse after it ran low of oil (my fault I used the wrong filter and I feel like a idiot now) not sure if its a new knock or it just made the top end rattle I already had worse. Fingers crossed it's till my top end

No need to top dead center cylinder 1 on exhuast stroke?

@Poweraddicts 11 месяцев назад

Nope, just torque as shown. Super easy !!

@marcosroman6127 3 года назад

I have a 2.5 and I have tick that’s from the top end will solve my problem? Great info by the way. I’m going to take mine apart this weekend

@Poweraddicts 3 года назад

That would be the easiest way to start. Probably 95% of the time this fixes it. If it is still there after changing these parts, it is time for a new cam and lifters.

@oconnef 2 года назад

I have a stuck or burnt valve… I tried pulling the valve cover to run it to visually inspect and the engine runs away revving. Is that indicative of a stuck intake or exhaust valve?

@rayg2944 2 года назад

my engine is a 3.8 I want to know if this would be the same routine to switch the lifters on that engine since I can find videos that are specifically geared to 3.8 liter engines

@GagandeepSingh-br7ej 11 месяцев назад

Hi, can you please fix this noise of my jeep 2.5?

@Poweraddicts 11 месяцев назад

Try changing the rockers, pivots, and push rods like in the video. If it is a rocker tick this should help.

@Nord3202 3 года назад

If the push rods are not blocked or bent. And the end balls not galled worn or loose can they be reused with the new rocker arm kit. I got 3 Jeeps running 15w40 oil, the Grand Cherokee from Alaska with 208,000 miles & oil changed regularly with synthetic from previous owner ticks badly on start ups till it warms up gets much quieter but still there. Thanks

@Poweraddicts 3 года назад

I have reused them and not have any issues. Just make sure they are in good shape.

@cantfixstupid5503 Год назад

hey there! you mentioned "you dont have to worry about cam/valve timing.. just take em off and put em back on.." Do you have to do any TDC or closed valve position? Or are they all just "remove and reinstall with torque spec"??

@Poweraddicts Год назад

Remove and install making sure they are torqued properly. Really easy. Most Chrysler and Ford engines do not require doing TDC or valve position. GM engines do.
