Hi guys anyone replace their lifters yourself ,got a few questions.

2-locating plate for the front (tool 156 00 32 00)

I have worked on the 156, and to my surprise it was easier than expected. (I guess easy all relates to experience). However, you will need all the tools except for the flat one that is suppose to slide into the rear of the cams.

Wow, are you out of warranty? Do you plan to replace the cams too?
Get an oil sample, send it to Blackstone lab, good luck.
