From what I'm seeing, these look to be defective.6 of these have some plunger movement. 10 of them are solid as a rock. That doesn't sound right to me. This is after much soaking and air cleaning. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Keep in mind that the lifters that were on an open valve at the time or removal are going to be depleted relative to the other ones. Especially since they've only been mildly exposed to minor oil pump pressure during starting attempts. Then they sit for a while before you take them out... You will get some difference in difficulty of pushing the plunger down because of this. I always have, and to date have not had any lifter problems because of this.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
