Hydraulic Valve Lifters: Inspection

  1. Check for nicks, burrs or scoring on parts. Ensure lifter roller operates smoothly without excessive play and contains no flat spots. Measure lifter and lifter bore diameter to ensure proper clearance.
  2. Replace lifters if not within specification. See VALVE LIFTERS under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS. An oversize lifter can be used to obtain correct clearance.
CAUTION: New lifters must be primed before installation to prevent component damage.
