possum Donating Members 553 Member For: 15y 5m 27d Gender: Male Posted 19/08/11 08:40 AM Share Posted 19/08/11 08:40 AM +1 for lifters, when I changed the valve springs in my old BA we took the lifters right out, needless to say it wouldn't run until they bled up properly, started to run on 3 then 4 then 5 until finally all 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
