• Q: How to Service and Repair Lash Adjusters on 2009 Dodge Ram 2500?

  A: You should also disconnect the negative cable from your battery when starting lash adjuster services. After that, take out the air cleaner housing (3) and then the intake manifold. Afterward, uncover the cylinder head, remove the entire rocker arm and push rod system and label each of the push rods for correct placement during installation. Remove the cylinder head first, then remove the bolt at the tappet retainer (1) before you take the retainer out (1). Tap the tappets out of the bore with a twist and moving motion and if all of them are to go back in, label them to guarantee they return to their own positions. Always take a look at the camshaft lobes to verify whether they are showing any unusual damage.
