Dodge Avenger Lash Adjuster
The Dodge Avenger Lash Adjuster minimizes valve clearance in the engine to ensure muted operation. A Lash Adjuster works like a little hydraulic pump. It receives pressurized oil, which makes the Lash Adjuster expand slightly. This helps take up microscopic gaps between the cam, lifter, and valve to help the components open and shut at the right time. The earlier engines applied solid versions that needed to be adjusted with periodic feeler-gauge changes, but later Dodge editions applied the self-compensating hydraulic type. The new Avenger setups combine that hydraulic body with a roller tip to lower friction. Compared with a solid type, the hydraulic type of Lash Adjuster reduces tapping noises, reduces wear, and saves the owner from regular lash checks. The roller Lash Adjuster further decreases sliding contact, improving efficiency, especially at highway revs. No matter which design your Dodge employs, all Avenger models benefit from the Lash Adjuster that maintains accurate valve lift height, helping the four-cylinder or V6 breathe easily, start well, and last longer. The proper weight of oil keeps all Dodge Avengers happy with the valve control.

Dodge Avenger Lash Adjuster Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install Lash Adjuster and Rocker Arm in 3.5L V6 engine on Dodge Avenger?A:To avoide sucking in of air into the lash adjusters do not rotate the rocker arm assemblies upside down. In case they are placed on a bench, they should not rest on the lash adjusters in order to avoid the breakage of the plastic retainers and the lash adjusters. Begin by removing the valve cover(s) and marking the rocker arms and pedestals for identification, noting there are four per cylinder: There are two intakes and two exhausts. Remove each rocker arm shaft bolt about a quarter turn in the opposite direction that it was tightened when removing the rocker shaft and the rockers in one assembly. Check each rocker arm for signs of wear, cracks and damage, rotate the rollers, check that the surfaces of the lash adjuster are in good shape. The lash adjuster must not be pulled out of the rocker arms so that it does not get damaged. Look at the state of pivot area and the shaft and if it is seen that some parts are too worn out, then they should be replaced. Check the orientation of the axle for the roller tip and inspect the hydraulic lash adjuster-to-valve stem tip contact surface for signs of wear. For the removal of rocker arms and pedestals for inspection, the dowel pins can be removed by using a 4 mm screw, nut, washer and spacer; when reinstalling it is important to apply new dowel pins. Should rocker arms or pedestals have been removed for maintenance then the shafts should be lubricated and the rocker arms place in their proper direction; the intake rockers on the intake shaft and the exhausts on the exhaust shaft. Be certain that the notches facing up when assembling so as not to harm the rocker arm shafts. Install new dowel pins in the condition that they should penetrate deepest into each pedestal. Place the rocker arm assemblies with the valvetrain in a no-load condition with the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets aligned at TDC number 1; tighten the right side rocker arm assembly bolts in the proper sequence; install and tight the left rocker arm assembly bolts. Make sure top of the notches on the left rocker arm shafts is directed forward and upward while that of the right rocker arm shafts is also directed backward and upward. Last of all, reinstall every component in a backward order to which you removed; switch on the engine and examine for leakage of oil.
