Lifter bore Hi,
I have noisy lifter that I will change next week. Some people say I might damage the lifter bore if I ignore the issue further.
What do you think ? How could this happen if there is oil and the body of lifter is one piece solid
Could it happen if oil valve fails?
Thanks

If the lifter get to noisy you will then start getting slack in the valve train, dont let the lifter get slack on the cam shaft it will cause the lifter roller to hammer on the cam lobe and cause the lifter roller bearing to fail, If that happens you can very easily take out the lifter bore & cam ,Remember these lifter are roller tip, They can take extreme pressure rolling around the cam lobe but not hammering on it.
