  1. Prevent of steps to take. Install drain plug with magnetic tip. If forbidden glitter “metal shavings” is on the drain plug. Time to inspect. I first thing cut oil filter open check for metal, second removed the VVT solenoid and check the metal screen for metal shavings.

    Oil I have used in my vehicles one of which was a hemi and never had engine problems until sold with 230k miles on it, was Valvoline synthetic blend. And the other is Castrol synthetic blend. Oil changes every 3-4k miles. Oil filters I recommend factor mopar oil filter, WiX and K&N

  2. Our shop got a reman 5.7 for a '15, from Chrysler, it had No heat tabs, anywhere, so when the exhaust rocker shaft bolts came loose, the pushrod fell down, and bent, Chrysler did not want to warranty it, despite their reman tag on the block. Went 800 miles before it started missing.

  3. I think it comes down to maintaining the engine I have a 6.1L hemi I do regular service on it an the transmission it's a good engine never let me down plenty of power very fun car to drive at the end of day all engines need TLC

  4. This was caught pretty early, especially compared to mine. When I bought mine is was running on 6 and had begun to spall Everywhere on the cam. New cam, pushrods, lifters and cam bearings and ran good again. A wonderful bargain for $2k

  5. Ever notice that every Hemi tear down has shown lack of oiling has caused the problems with Hemis? Most all of them have lifter problems, rod and main bearings problems. If you notice the camshaft is in like a tunnel with few openings that doesn't allow oil splash from the rods and piston skirts. The older Hemis had a bolt on cover that allowed oil from the top of engine to drain back to the camshaft and lifters. The same problem exists in LS and LT engines. No oil drain back to the camshaft and lifters and the camshaft is in a tunnel like space. Poor design from the engine designers!

  6. I know is too much to ask but can anyone link or help me find an in detail tear down of a TU5JP (NFZ) engine pls. I´ve been searching and I love this videos but is practically impossible an american channel like this is goona feature a French engine

  7. Some of those pistons looked ok, others not so much. I wouldn't and i don't know many people who would chance using a water or oil pump off a core engine. I'm sure there are some people who dont know better or just don't care. If your one of those people. Think about how much you'd want to pay for that water pump. Ask yourself if you think it would be financially worth it for someone to sell them. That alone makes it not worth it. Then when you factor in how much grief your going to deal with when that water pump fails quickly, destroying the customers engine. Its really not worth the pennys he'd be making off a water pump. Personally, I love it when he fires them accross the shop. Its probably the best use for them. 😂
