I've got what I think is a lifter that is not staying pumped up and keeps going flat. When I get a chance to work on it and if I have to remove the lifter, Do I have to remove the intake to get a roller lifter out ?

That's what I thought, but before I have to change out any lifters, I just changed the oil and added marvel mystery oil ( about one quart ) and so far it quieted down, I didn't think it could hurt, it's worth a try. The oil was a little dirty and only about 20 hours. any input on marvel mystery oil ?

Probably the best "Snake Oil" I've used for freeing up stuck lifters. :=

Rislone has been around nearly as long as Marvel Mystery Oil. Made from the same snakes!
