The same thing happened to my 5.3. Turns out the number 6 intake lifter “separated “ from the barrel. Do you feel the need to replace both sides of engine? Odd side and even side. Or just replacement of one side is enough. Thanks

Hi David, my 2015 6.2 117k miles just collapsed a AFM lifter. Cylinder 7, sent it to dealership, they wanted 4k dollars to do new lifters on bank 1, 8k dollars to do both banks. I brought it home and am doing it myself. I may end up doing a AFM delete. My first time inside a L base engine, which it's a LT. So you may have a collapsed lifter, I have learned AFM actually works off oil pressure. I noticed my oil pressure did go down a little when the "tick" appeared. So if you tackle this and plan on keeping AFM check you oil pressure system, there is a small filter on the valley plate, or vlom. Just some ideas, since I have the same truck. Good luck👍

I been dealing with 2015 4.3l AFM 170K miles P0304 Watched everything on KZbin. Found this to to be rich in information. Thanks. Shop did everything swap coils plugs wires. Intake clean, smoker test for leaks. 150psi to 170 and nothing on leak down. Injector balance Used smoke from Mexico ( The good stuff) Nothing at removing the valve covers nothing found. Shop wanted $15K to replace engine. I paid got truck out. I pulled off valve covers to do my own eye to see if rockers moving. All seemed OK. I ran truck with cover off and slowing backed off rocker bolts 8mm 1/4 turn with misfire counter watching. Upon getting to 4th rocker from front on right side. 1/4 turn out misfire was gone. I played a little till rattle and then back tight 1/2 turn and zero misfire. How long with this last? Any day longer is better if I can get a few months get CA smog test passed I can get 2 years more. My puzzler is confused as to what was wrong? This truck since day one had a slight rough idle but NEVER A CODE till Nov 2023 at 168K miles. Could the valve Preload been just off from the factory?????? I could not have gotten here today without this and other KZbin sites. BTY to remove starter on Crew cab 4.3l 4x4 it must come up out though wheel well and with Frame bolt removed and heat shield removed. All other Silverado starters can drop below. This is too small area.

I learned so much from this video and I have a couple routes I’m looking to take in order to hopefully fix my truck. So I got a misfire code p0304 and a O2code and the stabilitrak/traction control and check engine came up on my 07 Sierra 5.3. What I did was changed all my spark plugs with Bosch plugs and after doing this my truck actually got worse, my mechanic said that ac delco spark plugs are recommended for my engine. After that the p0304 code took off and now I have a p0300 code, I did change the coils, wires, cleaned the throttle body and mass air flow sensor and nothing helped. What I also did was shoot water all around my intake gasket and I did have a tiny vacuum leak but I’m not sure if that can be big enough to make my engine misfire. I’m now wondering if it’s the rocker arm with the afm that’s messing up. Any recommendations?

I'm late to the party, but great video, but I still have a question about the Cold Start and Rough Idle problem I have watched all the videos I can find and yours are the best by far, but still would like to know exactly what is going on. My 2017 Tahoe 5.3 has that short term miss when first started in the mornings. By the time I back out of the drive way, it has cleared up and runs fine until the next cold start. No lifter noise, just rough idling. I would like to know what is causing it to misfire only on cold start ups and for such a short time period. Seems as if it is injectors, it would not be just on cold start ups. Heated oxygen sensors? Carbon deposits? AFM lifters? Seems as if you could install new injectors and still not fix it. Or a new lifters and still not fix it. Both of these could be hit or miss and it just be carbon build up. Sometimes I can clear the code P050D and may stay off for a few weeks before setting again. (It say it is a permanent code). Would like to get to the problem without just throwing parts at it hoping to cure it. As a side note, I have found that if I manually set the tranny in low range and leave it in 5th gear, it never going into the AFM mode. Thanks for letting me ramble on and making a long post.

Hey Ron, dealing with one of these in my shop at the moment. In October of 2022 we had one of these in with a dead #7 cylinder, had low compression, pulled the head and replaced all the lifters ran perfect for 900 miles, however just came back with the same cylinder misfiring. This time it has compression, pulled the VC and the intake rocker isn't moving with when the engine is running, however it has full motion when turned over by hand. I find it really hard to believe the same lifter in the same cylinder is bad again. Leaning more towards the VLOM keeping that lifter on. Thoughts?
