Thats a really good easy to follow guide JT thanks a lot
I intend to try and dismantle all the lifters to clean them ( making sure I know which lifter goes in which bore) so I have a couple more questions.
1 - can I reuse the spring clips that hold the lifters together when I dismantle them or should they be replaced and any hints on how to get them out without damaging them?
2 - the age old question of " should you soak the lifters overnight in oil" or can I just make sure they " are not dry " when I put them back?
I'm still a little bothered that I seem unable to depress the spring on the 3 lifters I've tried so far, I'm sure they are not seized as the engine ran so well and so quietly prior to the tick, any thoughts?
