What tools and compressed air source are required to replace broken valve springs and defective valve stem oil seals without removing the cylinder heads on 2.4L four cylinder Nissan Pathfinder?

To do this, you will need a compressed air system and special tools. After removing the valve cover and top timing chain, camshaft and lifters should be removed from affected cylinder head. In case you plan to replace all the valve stem seals, remove all spark plugs. Put the piston of the bad-cylinder at TDC in its compression stroke by turning the crankshaft. Place an adapter into the spark plug hole and use compressed air on that cylinder. For protection against debris entering the engine, fill with old rags around each valve. Use a spring compressor to compress spring and remove valve stem keepers. Pay attention to any bending or misalignment of the valve stem. Replace valve stem seals, lubricate valve stems then reinstall valve springs, retainers and keepers. Take off compressed air then reset camshaft, lifters, timing chain, valve cover then spark plugs and plug wires. Finally start as well as run an engine; check oil leaks and abnormal valves covers sounds.

Nissan Pathfinder Valve Stem Oil Seal

The Nissan Pathfinder Valve Stem Oil Seal helps keep engine oil from sneaking past the valve stems and into the combustion chambers. This protects power and emissions. The Valve Stem Oil Seal wraps around the stem tightly, feeding just enough oil to the guides while blocking off excess oil that would otherwise burn and foul plugs. This helps the valvetrain handle the high heat and rapid cycling that is put through the engine. As clearance increases in lifters, pushrods, or rocker arms and the pounding increases, that is fine if the Valve Stem Oil Seal is intact. It will still prevent excessive oil from getting in, which will create more misfire, valve float, or even damage the piston. Across Pathfinder model years, the fundamental elastomer-and-spring design of the Valve Stem Oil Seal has remained consistent because the proven layout already supports both overhead valve and overhead cam layouts. Consequently, Nissan owners receive the same reliable seal whether the camshaft is in the block with pushrods or overhead driving buckets or rockers. This Valve Stem Oil Seal seals the valve stem to maintain compression and reduce smoke while prolonging the life of the Nissan valve train. Every Pathfinder engine starts smoothly and delivers steady horsepower.
