Hydraulic Lifter: Removal

Remove cylinder head and related parts. Using a magnet, remove lifters. Place lifters in a rack so they can be installed in original positions. If the lifters are stuck in their bores by excessive varnish or gum, it may be necessary to use Hydraulic Lifter Puller T70L-6500-A or equivalent to remove the lifters. Rotate the lifter back and forth to lossen any gum and varnish which may have formed. Keep the assemblies intact until they are to be cleaned.

If a hydraulic lifter has been disassembled and cleaned, ensure to fill it w/test fluid before installing it in the engine. New lifters already contain test fluid.
