Peter, this is not difficult if you have a collapsible push rod tube
which we sell for $19 and a new lifter (also $19).  However I would be
sure there isn't another problem that caused the lifter to fail.  Take
the push rod from this failed lifter and roll it across the table.  If
it is bent then you may have a bent valve as well.  Let me know what you
find.  Please consider us when you purchase your parts.
