Pontiac G6 Rocker Shaft Spring Kit
The Pontiac G6 Rocker Shaft Spring Kit offers optimum valvetrain stability and the right level of tension for timely opening and closing of intake and exhaust valves, facilitating proper vehicle operation. The Rocker Shaft Spring Kit allows the user to replicate a factory-like effect in one's engine. With a fixed rocker arm on a fixed shaft with new springs, this unit can restore seat and open pressure to factory levels to prevent harmful valve float from robbing engine power. Valve float can cause a valve to potentially hit a piston. By means of basic mechanical leverage, the cam lobes push the lifters or buckets, motion travels through pushrods where applied, then the rockers pivot easily as the Rocker Shaft Spring Kit reduces excess lash which builds as the parts wear out. Older Pontiac engines featuring overhead valve configurations utilized a distinct rocker stud for each rocker. Subsequently, G6 assemblies adopted the Rocker Shaft Spring Kit design. This design couples the rockers around a common axis. Thus, the load is distributed evenly, resulting in a significant reduction in the bending stress of the entire assembly. This shift separates the stud style from the shaft style, with the Rocker Shaft Spring Kit delivering quieter operation, longer spring life, and easier lash control, advantages welcomed by every G6 owner. This kit maintains sharp Pontiac performance at every rpm.
Each OEM Pontiac G6 Rocker Shaft Spring Kit we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
Pontiac G6 Rocker Shaft Spring Kit Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q:Can broken Rocker Shaft Spring Kit and Valve Stem Oil Seal be replaced without removing the cylinder head in 3.6L V6 engine on Pontiac G6?A:Replacing of broken valve springs and leaking valve stem seals does not need the removal of the cylinder head normally when it necessitates only two particular tools and a supply of compressed air. Start with the spark plugs then follow the upper intake manifold, then the valve covers, the Camshafts and lastly the Rocker Arms. Put a spark plug through the spark plug hole and attach an air hose to a receptacle of compressed air; it is possible to obtain a suitable air hose socket in any auto spare parts shop. Spray compressed air on the cylinder which should intact the valves. Strike lightly on top of each of the valve spring retainer with a rubber mallet to free the valve keeper from its seat on the retainer, then use a valve spring compressor to compress the spring; then pull the retainers from the keepers with needle nose pliers or a magnet. There are specific techniques for compressing valve springs with the head still on, though it may be rarely done, and such tools may grasp the lower coils of the spring or use the rocker arm bolt for the purpose. That is so because once the valve spring and retainer have been unscrewed, there is always high air pressure that holds the valve closed to prevent damage. Pop out the old valve stem seal as intake and exhaust are dissimilar and place a rubber band or some tape on the top of that valve stem to avoid it from dropping into the combustion chamber before that air pressure is released. Check the undersides of the valve stem for damage, especially in the region of the guide; if there is a tendency for the stem to bind, the head will have to be lifted and repaired. Breathe on the valve to keep it closed, replace intake and exhaust valve stem seals while still using the hammer not to force it against the top of the guide. Place it over the valve, compress only enough to place the keepers in and then with a little grease apply it to the keepers to secure it for usage. Once you are sure that the keepers are comfortably seated, pull the air hose and pull out the adapter out of the spark plug hole and do the same for the other cylinders. At last replace the rocker arm assemblies, camshafts, Timing Chains, valve covers and start the engine and perform tests about the oil leaking and unusual sound of an engine for a minimum of five minutes of idle time and for minimum rev.
