Aloha, I'm new to the site, but have absolutely been a follower for A4's. So we brought out of storage of 12 years the "rebuilt" A4 to put back in the 1963 Choy Lee 30'. Yes we have gone through a number of topics so we have changed out the points to electronic ignition, new spark plug cables, new impeller for the raw water pump. We did have a few stuck valves but alot of PB freed them up.
The real problem is exhaust valve lifter on cylinder 1 and 4 will not move on their own. When we hand crank the engine over all the valves move put 1 and 4 will not move down. We have taken the valves and springs out and they flow great. Its the lifters that will not move freely. We can move them left and right with the wrench.
the question is. Can the lifters come out vertically? Is there a tool to screw into the top of the lifter to pull them out?
Appreciate Any thoughts,
Aloha,
