Torchred96 · 12-10-2012

Barcelona, I'm going on the assumption that the lifters ARE bad. But, I am concerned that there may be an oil clog somewhere before the liftes, that is why I want to, as Thomas said, have a look around while I am priming it...and before I put the cams back in and the lifters not installed. If I just put it back together without checking it I will always wonder every time I hear a slight clatter if a lifter ..or two isnt getting oil.

Thank you all for your responses
