Thanks and Thanks for watching Vassmotorsports, I actually put her on the back burner and been sitting outside, hopefully I get back on that one, still has a slight tick so I never put a tag on it and don't trust it. I want to pull motor this time and do the cam bearings and full delete the right way. I just wasn't lucky enough with the cheap route ,these motors don't like that haha

I was thinking about using air, before punching it with metal. But also using some hydraulic fluid and some type of plunger. And try to hydraulically release the lifter. If all else putting a grease fitting on the hole and pumping grease into the lifter. But who knows it's just a thought. I have a 2007 Avalanche. I thinking just pull the heads and do it right. If i did the delete im not sure it would pass smog. Or maybe filling the hole up with oil before blasting air might be an ideal.

Yes I filled mine with brake clean and it helps when you push the air to it. I tried doing it right after this band aid, because I bought it this way and was so loud I thought bottom might be hurt also and didn't want to waste money and time pulling heads so was hoping to hear the engine if this worked , it didn't they were in pieces when I pulled it down and tried to replace the lifters with AFM lifters In another video. And found out someone just put new lifters before I bought it. When I replaced it has a slight tick now and oil pressure drops to 15 or so when warmed up and tick gets louder and I don't trust it so im pulling the engine and do the right way with new cam bearings and delete kit and cam. I already had it dissabled in computer

Nice work. But if you're not going into the ecm and disabling active fuel management, chances are once DOD activates again the lifters will re-collapse. I used HP tuner to disable AFM.

I did unplug wire to brake booster as thats supposed to keep it from activating , but the lifters are In bad shape and didn't work. So I sent off computer to have it deactivated while im installing all new lifters in my next video. Hopefully this fixes it

@Vassmotorsports

I'm sure if you fighting this issue you been watching videos, it popped the same as hitting it thru the tower ,except mine wouldn't release with the hammer trick and you can put burs that will get lifter stuck in bore when trying to remove for replacement and seen the other guy that shows how the lifter will separate after they are out with air so I figured I just do it still in engine, it popped and pushrod flew out on floor. I stuck rod back in and pushed till it felt like it seated and tapped with hammer to make sure it locked inside, but if you seen my other videos after this it didn't work and I need to pull motor and do cam bearings and full AFM delete

I’m looking at a 2013 Silverado with misfire on cylinder 1. I was thinking if I get it, of taking off the valve covers and replacing all the lifters at once and then running one of those AFM disable modules that plugs into your OBD2 plug. In theory they should never collapse after that because the system just runs in “V8” mode after that. Would be cheaper than doing the full delete kit. What are your thoughts on that?

Thanks for watching Vassmotorsports, not sure is you seen my other AFM videos where I been fighting with this truck , it's not as simple as valve covers , have to remove heads to replace lifters. ,and I did what you are talking about (had my computer tuned so AFM disabled) and it still has a lite tick so I never actually put a tag on it to drive. Just kinda got parked outside my shop ,but it's to nice to let sit much longer but I have made my mind up to pull the engine so I can do cam bearings and full delete the correct way , you can try just lifters (afm style) but these engines are known for faulty cam bearings and its just a chance of luck if you try that way , I couldn't see any were on my cam lobes ,but the journals and bearings must have to much wear

Guess you didn't listen or watch all the videos on this vehicle, I bought it this way for myself and it had a terrible noise so I wasn't gonna do full cam swap without knowing the bottom end was even any good or gonna have to do an engine swap. I was just trying to band aid so I could drive her and make sure everything else was good like trans and engine before getting deep into her and spending money. Pretty simple dude. I wound up doing new lifter set and runs good but has a slight tick so I'll pull engine one day and do cam bearings and full delete swap the right way now I know Nothing wrong with bottom end and no overheating or issues and she drives so nice , I wouldn't think of selling someone a known lemon. Check out some of my other videos and you'll figure that out, that's why I have people that only beg me to work on their stuff but rarely have the time for them
