  • Hey Good People,
    I had a beautiful Chevrolet Camaro in the shop this week. It had the LT 6.2 engine with the DOD delete. Unfortunately, it still found its way to my shop for lifter failure. I couldn't believe it. Take a look at the video to to discover what happened....

    I don’t have DOD and I lifter failure and rocker arm failure on a stock car. Oil changed every 5k with name brand synthetic.

    Excellent vid, some serious diag skills, your customers are lucky to have you, a knowledgeable and honest mechanic. This is why as much as the sound of extra power is always appealing, outcomes like this or worse are always more common after doing such mods.

    I’m having the misfire in cylinder 2 and this going to be my next step to open to the engine more cause I’m still getting the codes after changing the fuel injector and spark plugs

    Thanks doctor, how about if you turn the crank shaft to the point there's no tension on that lifter then use the magnet to pull it out

    Chrysler, GM and Ford are all having lifter failure issues. It appears that only one lifter fails, rather than several. I think that would rule out motor oil. The problem must lie in the roller needles. There must be a bad batch of needles. As with other components, I'm sure there are only a handful of bearing manufacturers. It's either a tolerance issue or a metallurgy issue. All can be narrowed down to one source. China.

    Well hopefully 🤞 it’s a fix that doesn’t include a new engine…good work. Yikes 😳

      ​@@AlexTheCarDoctor do I have to replace the cam, if number 3 lifter when bad, because if I did, I remove the lifter on and check the cam by spinning little by little and it just had a little touch nothing like push in or scratch on the cam, cam look healthy?

    Pretty much the same thing happened to my car bc someone cant do basic math. 7.600 push rod in an ls3 = no good. mushroomed lifter ruined the cam and lifter bore, wanted 10k to rebuild that engine, found a rebuilt engine for 5k and car STILL isnt together.

    Turning it all off wont solve the issue, you must swap lifters and cam.

    Wow. A new engine ??? So it wasn't worth a teardown and replacing that faulty lifter ?? I don't trust GM products .. I've seen later model Cameros stuck on the side of the roads enough .. So a DOD delete / mod caused this???
