AboutRoland Finston Expertise I specialize in Chrysler Corp. front wheel drive cars and minivans for the years 1982-2005 based upon my 50-year DIY experience and factory shop manuals. I don't have expertise/manuals for Jeeps, Trucks, Imports. Today on vacation, I will not take questions at any time, nor answer you within 1/2 hour. If I am shown as "maxed out" try again, in an hour, as I may be answering another question or otherwise busy. There are answers to ten thousand Chrysler questions at your finger tips: put a few key words in the "find" box (above) or click on "view past answers".
Question will the lifters come out the head push rod hole in either the 3.3 or 3.8 in a
1994 motor. thanks
Answer Hi Doug,
I am afraid not. Both my '93 and '95 manuals begin with the removal of the cylinder heads and intake manifold for access to service the hydraulic tappets. Are you certain they are the problem? Try listening to the loudness when the engine rpm is increased rapidly vs when it is decreased rapidly, using the throttle valve. It is probably not the tappets if the loudness of the sound of the clicking is quite different between those two modes.
