Study Engine misfire with excessive oil consumption. | Worn valves, valve guides and/or valve stem oil seals. | Repair or replace as required. |
Study Worn piston rings. (Oil consumption may or may not cause the engine to misfire) | Inspection the cylinder for a loss of compression. Repair or replace as required. |
| Incorrect oil viscosity. | Drain the oil. Install the correct viscosity oil. |
Study Worn crankshaft thrust bearing. | Inspect the thrust bearing and crankshaft. Repair or replace as required. |
Study Upper engine noise, regardless of engine speed. | Low oil pressure. | Repair or replace as required. |
Study Broken valve spring. | Replace the valve spring. |
Study Worn or dirty valve lifters. | Replace the valve lifters. |
Study Stretched or broken timing chain and/or damaged sprocket teeth. | Replace the timing chain and sprockets. |
Study Worn timing chain tensioner, if applicable. | Replace the timing chain tensioner as required. |
Study Worn camshaft lobes. | Inspect the camshaft lobes. Replace the camshaft and valve lifters as required. |
Study Worn valve guides or valve stems. | Inspect the valves and valve guides, then repair as required. |
