2009 Chevrolet Colorado Valve Stem Oil Seal Parts and Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the valve guide seal, replace the valve stem oil seal, and valve spring on 2009 Chevrolet Colorado?

  A: Begin working on the Valve Stem Oil Seal repair by supporting and raising the vehicle properly. Insert the keeping tool en 46547 into the Flywheel teeth first before placing the car down on stands. Take away both camshafts and spark plugs first. Set the j-44228-a base plate over the Spark Plug hole of the chosen cylinder and insert the j 39313 tool into the Spark Plug space. Maintain constant air pressure on the valve spring compressor j-44228-a device to keep the valve locked in position. Hold the j-44228-a arm and swivel nut onto the suitable valve stud while keeping in mind the powerful compression forces of the valve springs. Twist the swivel nut only until you reach the valve lock system. Then you can reach in with a magnet to remove the valve locks. Finish the procedure by taking off the valve spring retainer and spring after moving the swivel nut and swing arm. Apply the j 38820 tool to grasp and extract the old Valve Stem Oil Seal through a turning and pulling movement. Oil the valve stem and inlet of the new seal with engine oil before inserting the new Valve Stem Oil Seal into the j 38820 tool and pushing it into place with twisting pressure. Set the valve assembly in its correct position through the valve locks and j 43059 into the valve retainer installer. Do the same operation on any other valve in the cylinder after removing the swivel nut and arm assembly of j-44228-a. Service all valves before releasing the air pressure to take out the j 39313 and then remove the base plate of the j-44228-a. Complete the procedure by putting back the spark plugs and camshafts then lifting the car up. Take out the en 46547 from the Flywheel and install its service plug before lowering the vehicle.
