Hi, If adjusted properly, will flat lifters fill with oil? If you think they should, and they don't, must the lifter(s) be replaced? Or just removed and filled? I adjusted my valves and found two that were springy. I performed the adjustment as though they were stiff- I did not press the springs in at all before adjusting.. in other words, I eliminated all play in the rocker (but didn't compress the spring) before tightening the two turns. If the tapping doesn't stop within a few days, what should I do? Brad |
