Well I change the oil to 0w20 today and I took off the valve cover. True to saturn form, the cam sprocket bolt is impossible to get to without taking the engine out. However it looks like it would be possible to deactivate one cylinder by removing the rocker arm shaft and sliding two rocker arms over. Something would need to be done to hold the lifters in place. I have an old injector that I could plug in as placebo. Doest anyone know if it will run this way without an error code?
