    Hydraulic Lifter / Pushrod Preload

    The v/spring could start to compress because the lifter has pumped up & is not bleeding down. That does NOT necessarily mean the adjustment is wrong for that lifter. Flat tappet lifters have 0.150" [ or more ] of adjustment range. Anywhere within that range is satisfactory. The reason for such...
