Lifters, not going back in!!!!
« on: July 28, 2008, 04:35:03 PM »
Ok here's the thing I had a bad lifter (serious ticking) during start up at first.  Then got worse as time went on.  So I ended up buying a set to replace them all.  That was over a month ago.  I finally got the time to do them today.  So I started pullin em all.  The first 3 went in soooo easily, BUT now im stuck on the middle 2 (from front to back).  they just dont to go in.  Does anyone have any ideas or tricks???? Because im completly confused and tapped out.

hey Buki,  guess = try putting them in the freazer overnight and turn crank another 1/2  ... or micro - measure 'em all to be same size ...
