Most rebuilders use reground lifters in ther rebuilds. I have seen to many
problems with reground and other brands of new lifters that fail in a year
or two
I use Febi lifters only in my rebuilds they have never let me down all other
brands have
only the best for me
 if you have just one lifter that wont adjust back it off to 006ths and see
if that helps pump it up and stay pumped
have you have added marvel mistery oil and then an oil change after a few
heat cycles
 you might next take it out and clean it
then replace if needed with febi brand
