i just started cleaning my lifters due to excessive lifter noise from installing hks 272's and when i took the valve cover off i pushed down on all the lifters to see if they would move with the rockers on them and none of them did wich is what is supposed to happen. i just pulled two of the lifters out cleaned them and reinstalled them and now i can push the lifter down with some ease with the rocker on top of it. is it supposed to be like this when you clean them or not?

 

someones got to know the answer to this

 

if they have no fluid in them of course they will decompress easier...

so its normal im guessing, by the way the stuff in your feedback is pretty funny
