Pontiac Firebird Lash Adjuster
The Lash Adjuster in Pontiac Firebird has the main role of lifting the valve higher than it has been positioned originally in relation to the camshaft in order to make the operation of the engine run in the most efficiently as to add to its durability due to decreased wear. This one is also called a tappet, the role of this component is to transform the rotational motion of the camshaft into the linear one to control the movement of the engine's intake and exhaust valves. In years of production of Pontiac Firebird models, there have been applications of many types of the Lash Adjusters such as the solid, hydraulic, and roller. Hydraulic Lash Adjusters are particularly preferred for their kind that can change the clearance through the pressure of oil with out having to readjust it. Roller tappets have cropped up as the modern ones are frivolous as compared to the traditional ones with reduced friction and increased efficiency, thanks to the changes in the design of the engines. These changes include the type of Lash Adjuster used in the Pontiac Firebird automobiles and demonstrate the application of these components within alarger automotive systems.

Pontiac Firebird Lash Adjuster Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How can a noisy hydraulic lifter be isolated and what steps should be taken for its removal and reinstallation in V6 engine on Pontiac Firebird?A: A noisy hydraulically operated intake valve lash adjuster may be masked when the engine is stationary by positioning a length of hose or tubing against the approximate position of each lash adjuster and listening at the other end of the tube. If adjustment is to be believed, then, the most probable root of a noisy valve lash adjuster is the wear at the adjuster foot and camshaft lobe or deterioration or grime of the parts inside. Start with the rocker arm covers then proceed to take off the intake manifold. Turn the rocker arm clockwise until it is loose from the pushrod; remove this pushrod also and make sure that if more than one are removed they are set in an order so as to be replaced where they are required. If it is necessary to remove the lash adjuster, there is a specific lash adjuster removal tool; it is dangerous to use pliers or other tools on the outside of the adjuster body. If the lash adjusters are to be used again, it may be inevitable to organize them in a proper way for reusing them. Clean and dry the lash adjusters then look for wear through gauge rod and piston rod, look for flat spots. Lash adjusters become worn and need to be changed to the new ones; thus, the camshaft has to be replaced also. If the lash adjusters are in good shape, then they can be reused in the original position; it must be noted that the lash adjusters must always be coated with moly-based grease, or engine assembly lube. The steps that are followed in the actual installation of a device are as follows: The remaining steps are simply the reverse of the above removal steps.
