Subject:Hydraulic lifter wear/cleaning question
From:Giasson, Pascal (DNR/MRN)

Do hydraulic lifters wear out or do they just get dirty and not worth
the labour cost to disassemble and clean?  Mine have the occasional
bleed down, but nothing major.  I have them all on my bench and some are
dirtier than others.  I have taken two apart and one was definitely
dirtier than the other and it was also "softer" than the rest but it
could have been one that got knocked over on the bench and leaked.
Thanks
