no, u need to remove the heads to get at the lifters
no.
No. They intake and heads need removed.
it does not need to be removed.
on top of the engine block under the intake manifold. it can be accessed without removing the manifold. easy fix!
If you are refering to the 4.0 liter s.o.h.c.,which I think you are. It does not have (tappets) lifters. Its a single overhead cam engine.(no pushrods or lifters)The values are opened directly by the cam.
Top front near center of engine,a bit on the driver's side, partly under the intake manifold. only sensor in the area(wires connected to it) It CAN be removed and replaced without removing intake manifold. (a little filing and a little forcing)
if its fuel injected its in the gas tank On the 2.3L it is located beneath the intake manifold. It is mechanical, and can fail leaking oil from a drain tube connected to it. It can be removed without removing the intake.
On a 5.3. at the top rear of the engine, behind the intake manifold. I is very difficult to get to without first removing the intake manifold.
kinda goes without saying
You can remove the oil pan from your 2002 Chevy Cavalier, without removing the motor. The oil pan is held in place with retaining bolts.
it's on the intake manifold tucked in between the engine block and manifold itself, immediately to the left of the throttle body looking from the front of the car. It's a dog to get it's retaining bolts out without removing the manifold but can be done.
yes you can remove the fan clutch without removing the rad. it is tight but it can be done. it is easier with the Rad removed
