Do you need to replace the camshaft when replacing lifters?
Mostly old school..! The camshaft does not necessarily need to be replaced when replacing lifters, and often times is not. In the case of a 4 cylinder, especially, I would replace lifters without doing the camshaft since you can replace the lifters without removing the head.
Can a bent pushrod cause a lifter to collapse?
Some 2019-2021 Silverado, Sierra; 2021 Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon and Escalade models equipped with the 5.3L V8 engine (RPO L84) or 6.2L V8 engine (RPO L87) may have a misfire condition with a bent pushrod that leads to a collapsed lifter or the lifter comes apart. Misfire DTCs P0300 – P0308 may be set.
How long does it take to replace lifters on a 5.3 Vortec?
4wd 2013 with a 5.3 calls for 12.6 hours for lifters. Camshaft calls for 19.0 hours. This is per Alldata which is a very common pricing guide. Re: Time (hours) to replace lifters & cam on the 5.3 Vortec?
