my service manual says i can break down the lifters clean them check them for wear and if all looks good, fill half way with oil, reassemble and we are back in business.. my question is these are $5 lifters at NAPA, should I just replace them or use the ones in the engine and just clean them up? <br /><br />not that farmiler with hyrdaulic lifters, what are the chances of one failing if I dont fill it "exactly" halfway with oil? also what kind of oil would do they use? dare I assume hydraulic oil?<br /><br />any thoughts?
