Well after much confusion by many that I contacted. Today I finally got my Visa into Viet Nam. Almost impossible for an American to get in there now, with all of our Covid issues. Had to actually go to the VN Embassy in DC to make progress. But the woman I met there was very helpful and knowledgeable. Was there on Thursday. Today Fed Ex delivered the Visa. Think I'm leaving the day after my Birthday, leaving on the 18th:thumbsup:

As it was explained to me the reason not to soak hydraulic lifters is that they may fill completely with oil and not give when cranking and cause valve to smack piston. Lube them and let oil pressure do the filling and self adjust. Just passing on the explanation I was given.


The more lift, the greater the chance of damage? Has something to do with that degree thing? I Dont Know...

The engine line that I worked on, our hydraulic lifters were pre-filled with kerosene from the supplier... We had a "cold test" on the line that spun every engine manually and that would prime the oil system and check for defects (valve timing, low compression, oil flow pattern, etc...)

Our worst headache was a collapsed or 'soft lifter' as they would call it on the line... Those were ones with lifters that wouldn't pump up... They would come and go in streaks... Some good days and some bad... The repair guys in cold test would replace the offending lifter and rerun the engine until it passed the test...
