Fresh engine, wiped cam? Tick? (new pics added)
As the worm turns....
O.k. sirs... Lets keep in mind... If you watch the video, that part that is circled in blue, is what moves. There is NO spring behind that piece! It is free to move (rattle) as far as the clip will let it.
The other part is all one piece that DOES have a spring, that part DOES NOT move! The thing is it does not move at all, and that is why it was hard to judge pre-load because it didn't move at all! Is it possible that it is just pumped with oil, and that is why it does not move? If that is the case, how can you judge pre-load... and if that IS normal... The lifter is good! You know what I mean Vern?
This is not my lifter by the way, is is someone elses that was posted above.
(Wait a second... There is no circle... I'll get back to you on that...) (Something like this... You'll get the idea... Their is no spring sitting behind the small piece, so it would rattle.)
