Default Hydraulic Lifters

In future, keep in mind that simply soaking hydraulic lifters in oil is ineffective in priming them for installation.

You can prime them two ways: 1) Submerge them in oil and pump up and down several times with a pushrod, or 2) use an oil can to pump oil thru their side holes.
