Lifters

[Russ84na]

I have looked online and on Z31 and can't find any information about rebuilding lifters. Can it be done? IF so what is the procedure? I found one site that rebuilds lifters for the VG30 your core for $3.50 each. Does anyone have a good place to get them done?

You get a c-clamp, compress the thing, get a small tool to take a c clip off, and then let it loose. There's a write-up somewhere on the intarweb, all with nice pictures.

There is a set of brand new lifters on ebay somewere.

I'm curious how many "bad" lifters are actually a semi-plugged lifter tray...

since the pressurized oil goes into the tray and then in and around the portholes on the lifters, mine was covered in burnt oil but the inside was clean funny that

When i switched to castrol synthetic, it went from all black sight looking into the oil cap hole, to all aluminum and perfection.

A clogged lifter = what?
To little lift
or
Holding the valve open and burning it?
