Okay, Sooo. I had my nephew replace my lifters. He is supposed to be a mechanic? Two head gaskets and two sets of head bolts later. He tells me my pickup is only running on 2 to 3 cylinders now? I am not a mechanic, but have watched 100's of videos after the hemi tick started. Now he is telling me I need to buy new lifters again, gaskets again, head bolts again, oil again. My question is What the heck did he do to cause cylinder issues. I have a small understanding on cylinder loss. I was going to do it myself, but being a 57 year old lady. do not have the tools to do this. So I'm thinking he didn't torque the bolts correctly, or the push pins were not put back correctly. He's telling me it is because the new lifters I bought were cheap. He is quoting me 1200.00 for OEM lifters alone.
What are your thoughts on this.
