Hello, I’m brain storming on how to change the valve seals. I wanted to ask you if it is possible release the cams from the sprockets to gain access to the valve springs keeper and seals etc without a complete timing chain cover tear down? You experience and time is very much appreciated. Thank you Adam

Not possible on the vk56 engine, timing cover has to be removed to release the camshafts. The 3.6l pentastar (dodge) engine has a special tool known as a "cheese wedge" that binds the timingchain to allow cam removal. If your chasing an excessive oil burning issue its the pcv valves x2, if that doesnt fix it its the piston rings. Fyi junkyard engine is less than 2k.

I havent ever seen a spring or valve seal failure on the vk or vq engines. If its a ticking noise your chasing its piston slap, chain slap , or a low oil pressure issue. All of witch ties back to missed oil changes and negelect.
