@@steemo1385 mine was a spun lifter on cylinder 4, so I'm getting rid of the AFM, I purchased the AFM/ DOD DELETE KIT from AMS RACING, and doing it myself, 5 repair shops wanted 5,000 plus to do the delete kit, I was like nope, do it my self, I already had the valve covers, and intake manifold off, so not much more to remove to get to the lifters and camshaft.
It's is the valve cover but you don't have to buy a new one. Just take the valve cover off and drill more drain holes for the oil to return and clean the pcv with break cleaner or engine degreaser and that will solve the problem providing you don't have a bad coil or wire
I changed valve cover and stopped oil consumption., The way the new one at aftermarket is built has a different engineering which doesn’t keep oil from burning that’s what I was told. Turned out that I was still burning oil or losing oil and I couldn’t find out where it was coming from until it was put out on a lift and found out that my rear main seal needed to be replaced I haven’t replaced it as of yet what I did was use blue devil rear main seal sealer. That thing worked magic and I am no longer leaking.

Same this happen with my cheverlet shubarban and i did the same things u tell plugs change etc etc but no progress still missing then finally i get the main resson behind probleme is oil leakage now we are going through this
Really enjoyed your video. Taught me a lot. I was thinking that this problem was my lifter. I have a 2014 Yukon XL 5.3L V8 SLT. I have a misfire on the1st and 7th cylinder so I replaced all the spark plugs and wires and coil on the 7th cylinder and that made it run a little better for a while and then it had another misfire on the 7th cylinder again after driving it for a while. I don't have the tool to check the compression yet on the cylinders yet. The vehicle runs good until we stop at a light and the idle is real rough. I hope it's not a lifter but I don't want to continue throwing parts at it either. I guess it is what it is when it come to the vehicle. What are your thoughts on my problem?
Valve cover = misfire? + "If it's not that, you're gunna need an engine replacement" ? I hope no one watches this video and starts feeling "informed" or thinks they have a solid diagnostic direction with which to pursue a fix. Neither of the two previous statements by the mechanic are valid (in the context presented, at least.) Maybe you mean valve cover 'gasket'? Even so, if you considered this to be an "honest mechanic", I feel for ya. There are literally dozens of things (at least) an honest mechanic would need to look at in order to establish a strong/valid case for engine replacement. Sure, oil leaks are generally not a good thing - especially on the spark plug/plug boot. Something isn't right in the way the mechanic explained it to ya. Or, they're hiding something. Something else had to have been done/wiggled/replaced/connected/etc. But alas - if it's working...it's working. Cheers.
Same happen to mine and I changed the valve cover on PC side and fixed the problem. The wheep hole is to small GM fucked up as usual and had to make it bigger to allow balanced flow.
lol im not a certified mechanic and im not hating what you said but i dont know if this is a prank but valve cover aint got nothing to do with the misfire because its only covering the rocker arms and theres barely even any oil in there.
Beyond false due to a engine needing 3 things to work. Fuel, Spark and Air The valve cover has a PCV valve in it for the air, to much or to less will cause it to not combust correctly therefore causing a misfire. You got the word " Cover " to much in your head.
Just a FYI. They lied to you I believe. You had a air leak on the hose to cylinder 5 area. I just fixed one and the other day same issue, maybe? Maybe not but 95% of the time it’s the little hose both sides also one in rear.

You can also find a CZcams video on how to clean your injectors this way. I contacted 5 repair shops here in Arizona, and they wanted $5,000 to 5,500 to do the dod delete kit.

@@pattyleonard1045 ok today I did switch them with 4 and 6 and the problem went completely away. Very odd, no error codes and idles smooth now. One weird thing, as it first was idling I got a message on the screen that said something about service electrical system. It flashed and I never saw it again. It didn;t throw a code. After that, no problems. I drove it a few miles and it did fine. So at least I know its not the lifter or a piston problem. But I don't trust that it just went away magically either. These coils, spark plugs and wires are only a year old. I'm going to run some fuel injector cleaner thru tank of gas. I'll see if the error comes up again but at least I know if it now says cylinder 4 then its coil or wire. I have seen the fuel injector cleaner trick you mentioned. Never done it but I know how it works.
Valve covers aint going to fix the proplem unless the pcv valve that its built on it its bad..when there is miss fire as a tech there is alot of stuff to look at ..compression test,injector pulse valve liftter noises..ignition coil etc..
Those engine DOES NOT HAVE PCV Valve The problem is with GM design where the pCV lings goes into the valve cover is too close to the drain hole making the engine such oil the new corrected design the vacuumed pick up line is at the other end of the vavle cover and the oil in line will drain back into the cylinder head instead of going into the intake!
I've got a 2004 cadillac escalade. The truck runs fine for a few miles then it starts to misfire. I already replaced the trotle body and the fuel pump. Gona have a mechanic replace them valve covers and hope this will resolve my issue. Any ideas?

Isn’t it only the seal around the spark plug hole, I think you could’ve changed that without necessarily changing the whole valve cover? I had the same prob on a Honda and it had removable o-rings on the inside of the valve cover
Well, there's an update with the valve cover. There's an issue near the pcv valve where oil works it's way into. The updated valve cover reduces the oil getting kicked up in through the pcv valve. Also the pcv valve in these are hollow.
