ford hydraulic lifters?

Question

hi i am confused could someone tell me the difference between hydraulic roller lifters with the vertical bar attached and the hydraulic roller lifters without the bar attached

Answer 1

All rollers should have the bar to keep them from turning since it's quite obvious the rollers won't work sideways. None rollers turn each time they're activated for even wear.

Answer 2

I think you are asking what is the difference between roller lifters with a HORIZONTAL bar and those that do not have the bar. The anwer is that roller lifters need a method to keep them from rotating about a vertical axis. There are several methods employed to accomplish this, the horizontal bar that links two lifters together is just one of them. If you are designing your engine to be a very high RPM engine, then you want the lightest weight components, the bar, of course, has weight, so depending on other factors it may or may not be wise to use them. On some engines, you have no choice. If your engine is to be relatively mild and you have a choice, use the less expensive method to keep your roller lifters from rotating.

Answer 3

in case you have have been given new ones positioned them in a can of oil as deep as a results of fact the precise of the lifter or a minimum of intense adequate to cover the hollow in the section and push the midsection down some circumstances with a Phillips screw driving force or something like that ,in the event that they're already put in they could desire to pump themselves up if your oil pump is working allright

Answer 4

stability at high revs
