In this video I will be showing a quick over view of the damaged camshaft because of the faulty lifter. These engines come with collapsible lifters and they sometimes fail and damage the camshaft end or the camshaft bearings, which result in a load ticking noise. This is a slightly better video of how to fix this issue, a do it your self. This is a 2013 Dodge Hemi 5.7 LARAMIE. I believe it runs from 2010 Hemi 5.7, 2011, 2012, 2013, and up to 2014 Hemi. If you guys have any questions or need help, please comment down below! Thanks for watching I hope you guys support this new youtube channel that I am trying out.

Was it still ticking after you changed the lifters because mine still ticking all new lifters

[@houseofteks7474]

@@srtjunior7976 Yes in the beginning it'll tick until it builds enough oil pressure, but shouldn't last longer than a day, if so maybe something was not done right.

[@srtjunior7976]

Can a rocker arm make that ticking sound or maybe a bent pushrod every time I accelerate the ticking gets louder

[@houseofteks7474]

@@srtjunior7976 Possibly rocker arm, possibly a bent rod, but most likely a hydraulic lifter. Specially at higher rpm's, it'll be less efficient and cause more tick.

The secret to saving your cam and lifters is zinc. I have 160K+ miles on my 06 hemi. No ticks. I put a few ounces of Lucas engine assembly lube in the oil at each oil change. The industry removed zinc from oil about 20 year's ago and it has been wreaking havoc on engine's ever since.

[@houseofteks7474]

That to be honest is a really good way to prevent, and or make it last longer since the lifter don't dry out, but I also believe it's an issue with the lifter since it gets stuck. Some of them bleed out, like the chevy, but the hemi's get stuck and locked up which starts smashing the camshaft lobe.

[@ckelly9747]

Sir you hit it right on the head. I 📚 read multiple articles from Engine Lab about Zinc, cat converters, load resistance, moly lube. Seems to proltect kitty🐈 cats the AMF pulled out Zinc. I buy Valvoline ZR1 and put in my 1980 car with comp cam.

[@drewdavis9657]

It has been determined that idle hours is the biggest detriment to hemi cam and lifter failures. (Police fleet service history basically proves this)Minimize idling, change oil frequently more at an engine hours interval than mileage, and the theorized true fix or prevention of the hemi tick, is to upgrade to a hellcat oil pump

[@ekummel]

But be careful with "upgrading" to the Hellcat oil pump.The difference in the maximum pressure (from 55psi to76psi) will cause the computer to throw a code which disables the MDS. The fix is to put a voltage splitter on the signal wire from the oil pressure sender unit to the ECM. It's a simple two resistor fix that will bring the oil sender information back into normal range for the ECM.

Hey man I had a very important question I been dealing with this maybe for the past month and been trying to figure it out myself but I can’t seem to know what’s the problem causing this but my driver side rocker arms are loose both intake and exhaust and tried to tight them up but they became loose again they move side to side just a little bit I don’t think it’s the cam because it’s only on my driver side that’s making the noise n I know for a fact that it’s my rocker arms but I don’t know what’s causing that my rockers are coming loose I fight em up put everything together start the car and it’s still the same

[@houseofteks7474]

Your lifters, once they cant hold oil and start bleeding out rapidly, they start making noise and dont hold the push rod and rocker arm stiff.

[@josh666675]

Is there even a top dead center you need to be at or no??

[@pkmathome1500]

So you have to remove the other head too (& those lifters) to get the cam out right? Thats why you briefly showed 16 lifters? Or did you just replace all lifters on this side?

[@houseofteks7474]

Yes, I don't think you can remove the camshaft without removing the load that's on the camshaft. It would most likely get stuck and same thing when reinstalling them.

[@johnjlanejr]

Not necessarily. If you remove rocker rails then you can remove cam without removing the head, BUT you risk the lifter falling into the lifter bore and into the oil pan. Both heads should be removed to change cam and lifters. It's best practices.

[@Cameron-b1z]

does this fix the issue or is it going to have the same failure down the road?

[@houseofteks7474]

They are hydraulic lifters so you will need to run the engine for a while to build oil pressure and seat the rings and other stuff to break in. If you rebuilt it and haven't started it yet its because there is no oil pressure making the pushrods to feel loose. There is no adjustment for hydraulic lifters, at least not in the oem lifters.

I feel like this should be a recall on the 4th gens. Is common for the cam to go bad and lifters on the passenger side. But why does the excessive wear happen. See on my 2012 ram I use 10W-40 oil instead of the recommended 5w20 and as of right now I have no tick thankfully. It would be a pain to have to go through this process. If at some point my camshaft goes bad I would might as well upgrade to helcat lifters and I racing cam or something and have it sounding real nice.

[@houseofteks7474]

I don't know the correct answer but I do know that the lifters get stuck, I don't know how, but it causes it to just keep slapping the camshaft lobe and it mushrooms it. But if you fix the ticking issue right away you wouldn't need to replace the camshaft.

[@DL101ca]

@@houseofteks7474 usually the MDS lifters collapse(by design) and create this issue, but it happens on non MDS engines as well such as the 6.4 hemis in the HD trucks and that leads me to believe it's insufficient oil pressure and lack of lubrication at the cam/roller point where the needle bearings fail and destroy the cam lobe. It is a widespread issue and made worse by idling your engine extensively, where your oil pressure is the lowest.

If you replaced the camshaft and lifters, make sure the rods arnt bent and also that you are getting good oil pressure, maybe you got another issue that caused the camshaft and lifers to go out like oil pressure issues. Or maybe using the wrong engine oil.

[@houseofteks7474]

Possibly that first issue caused other issues and that mechanic should've check things before reinstalling the new parts. Maybe when he removed the cylinder head, he accidently damaged a valve or spring. Maybe when he was torquing the rocker arms, he bent one or it was already bent? Possibly when torquing rocker arms he damaged where the rocker arms ride on. So many different things, I would take it apart again and check it out.

Great info and instruction. What lubricant did you use on head bolts? Oil or assembly lube?

[@houseofteks7474]

Check if you are getting good oil pressure, also to make sure you put in the right oil. I would remove valve cover gaskets to see if oil is reaching to all rocker arms. Also if you barely started it, may take some engine running time for lifters to bleed out so they can stop ticking.

[@houseofteks7474]

Well, if they knew what they were doing, when replacing the lifters, they could tell if the camshaft got damaged. If its lacking power it could be that it might be time to replace the spark plugs, maybe a coil is going out? Depending how many miles you got, it could be that you need a valve job, or a push rod got bent? Theres lots of things that could cause misfire and or lack of power.

No, customer was just trying to sell the truck and wanted no check engine light on.

[@elvism684]

Do you put new cam bearings for the new cam or just check them with gauge and if their within spec you use them?

[@houseofteks7474]

Yeah, pretty much just check them if within spec.

[@ezcsmartlight1910]

Great video. Love to see actual steps and process rather than me me me crap. Thanks.

[@houseofteks7474]

Thank you!

Is there a need go set timing? Or no? Sorry for the question I'm used to 4cylinder engines.

[@houseofteks7474]

I'm not too sure what you are asking but you do always need to time an engine when removing the timing chain. What I did for this engine and timing chains similar to these ones was that I just marked it and made sure it didn't jump a tooth. Some engines are timing belts which work the same way but look different.

[@timmymckellar9077]

Did any body notice at 3:15 in he dropped the chain tensioner space into the engine 😂

[@timmymckellar9077]

Spacer*

[@houseofteks7474]

Haha yeah I accidently dropped it, its under spring pressure, but I got a magnet and picked it right up. Good Catch ahha

[@n.b.p.davenport7066]

I would also upgrade your oil pump

Buenas noche saludos desde Venezuela 🇻🇪 por lo que vi se puede , cambiar solo el lado que sonaba ..?

[@houseofteks7474]

Si se puede pero el otro lado va tener el mismo problema. De una vez aser los dos lados para que no tengas que desarmar el motor otravez.

[@juanmota8812]

How much would this cost to fix?

[@ramlyfestyle9285]

How you keep crank from rotating when torquing the camshaft bolt?

[@houseofteks7474]

There is a special tool to hold the crankshaft, but I wouldn't buy it unless I do these every day. I would just try to hold it and try to torque it.

[@PedroDePacas99]

Great video but audio issues. Once you get to removing the head it all goes mute until you start installing the cam.

[@houseofteks7474]

Sorry about that, yeah everything was good but I'm not sure what happened to the audio, it all disappeared. I'm working on a new video with audio hopefully coming out soon.

So I have a 2013 Ram 1500 5.7 2WD, It’s throwing a Cylinder 7 misfire (P0307) and air ratio imbalance (P219A). I can feel a slight misfire while idling or stopped at a light. Not entirely sure why but when I did a injector kill test on it instead of sputtering the truck completely turned off and this happened on any cylinder on opposite or suspected bank aswell. Swapped the coils, plugs, crankshaft sensor, O2 sensors but still no luck. What I have noticed is that the 2nd time I put the new plugs in the truck lasted probably 40 miles before the engine light came on so I pulled the plugs out again and they looked pretty dark brown to black which didn’t seem normal considering they only been in there for 40 miles or less. Compression Test showed 160 or so. No smoke comin out the exhaust too. Any idea if it’s still possibly a cam or lifter failure

[@mrrana3397]

I kinda of wanted to lean more towards an electrical problem because the truck was wrecked and I had to leave the EPS disconnected overnight in order for it to work which it did but if you throw a scanner on it shows as the EPS is receiving no power but here I am turning the wheel with 1 finger, also airbag light is on but no airbags were deployed.

[@houseofteks7474]

I would first fix the current issues if they could be related. If they arn't related, I would check out the wiring if the mechanical part passes. Possibly could be an injector that is spraying too much fuel?

[@stealhty1]

After I aligned the cam and crank with the marks on the chain ,, Im getting valve strike,,my engine is not MDS

[@houseofteks7474]

Maybe you timed the camshaft sprocket 180 degrees out. Got to make sure not to turn nothing and leave everything aligned and marked in 2 different places.

[@stealhty1]

It happens to be the push rods not sitting properly right on top of the lifter..instead they where sideways

[@johnsonvideos1450]

Could one just change the lifter that is damaged before pulling all the other stuff apart

[@kgotkicks3370]

Definitely replace all lifters as they all have the same wear and eventually another will seize soon. But if caught soon enough the cam could be saved but you will still have to get the cam out to check it for damage.
