Hydraulic Lifter - Disassembly / Assembly
Disassembling a lifter is not very difficult.
The plunger is under slight spring load from the retaining ring when the oil is bled off of the lifter.
A pumped up lifter can be bled by removing the check valve on the bottom and pressing a pushrod in the lifter hole.
Once the plunger is out, turn the body upside down and let it drain. Pull the plate out if you haven't already. | ||
This is the lifter's check valve (some have a plate and spring, others have a ball and spring). The cup pries off with a screwdriver. Careful not to lose the cup or the tiny spring under it. |
