Chevrolet Storm Lash Adjuster keeps valve clearance perfect for compact and sport engines, which delivers a punch and silent confidence. The Lash Adjuster is a mechanism that is shaped like a small piston that operates with the help of oil. It senses heat expansion and within fractions of a second expands and locks the valve train into an ideal zero gap. The end result is that the annoying noise of ticking fades away and the horsepower of the engine stays on tap from idle to redline. The 1.6 and 1.8 liter Chevrolet Storm variants of the hydraulic design proved smart, as whichever form you chose in the daily commuter hatchback or the quicker GSi, you got the same promise, smoother acceleration and longer component life. Since the Lash Adjuster automatically eliminates play, cam lobes raise valves the precise distance the factory intended. As a result, fuel burns cleaner and throttle response improves. This benefit can be experienced directly, as the Storm surges onto the freeway or threads a winding back road. In later iterations, the Lash Adjuster was coupled with a roller nose to further reduce friction to help Chevrolet meet stricter economy targets without affecting the cylinder head casting. The Lash Adjuster uses ordinary engine oil which is pressurized and is already flowing through the block. So, it does not require the help of any extra pump or electronic device which can fail. Just pure mechanical precision and reliability that keep the Storm going past the 100,000 mile mark. The compatibility is the same for all production years meaning the one Lash Adjuster part number will fit both early solid setups after conversion as well as the later factory hydraulic assemblies. This will enhance ownership experience and safety consistency as a valve train held tight within spec cannot misfire and damage pistons or catalytic converters. Automobile aficionados are pleased that the Chevrolet badge lives up to its promise of durability, while the inexpensive Storm platform gets a premium smoothness thanks to this little component called the Lash Adjuster. Chevrolet drivers trust it; racers hammer their Storm; Chevrolet reliability prevails.
