Do It Yourself. Feeling game try some of the mods outlined in here. Some of these can be peformed by novices others require a substantial amount of knowledge before attempting them
Where is the rear bank even located? haha I have very little knowledge of engine parts as you can see...
Are they the same one kempy's use to sell? Are there better ones? As the ones I replaced are noisy again already. I heard on the American forums we should use the generation three ones?
Nah, not the same as Kempys. Dunno how these ones will hold up, I've only just put them in.
These lifters from "meek" are the "3rd gen" ones Will be using them in my car next year when i buy a set
Also will be buying an EVO8 MR Recirculating BPV (BOV), a cheap tough option
CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
Sweet! I am pressure sure the kempys ones I purchased had a bore of roughly 3mm?? Im pressure sure the orginal lifters were 3mm as well??
Changed mine years ago though.
I may consider looking at the condition of my oil pan, oil pickup and using a better filter than the Ryco/Coopers brands as I heard a K And N and an Motocraft equivalent (cant remember the name) produces better oil pressure at startup.
Ben
Can you confirm these http://www.3sx.com/store/comersus_viewI ... duct=12153
as you posted fit a GR?
They are suppling them for the GTO & looking on Camskill site they give them a different part number to the GR & they are also £50 cheaper for the GTO so I'm thinking htey are different
I'd like to buy a couple of sets if they are the same.
Yeah Ben, they are the ones!!! They had a lot of great stuff on sale before X-Mas
The "other forum" 3si.org that i use the guys do group buys from 3SX once to twice a year and get awesome deals from the owner of the shop
Will be hitting them up shortly to save money on parts+freight.
Need anything let me know i'll PM the guy who organises the purchase
Well going by my quick research there are three types of Mitsubishi lifter in different sizes. 1st generation lifter, revised lifter, and 3rd generation lifter.
The 6A12 has always used third generation lifters and these buggers are meant to be total silent. The DSM boys generally say the 3rd generation lifters will shut up their engines for good. Unsure if the 6A12 is sh*t somewhere to cause the lifters to be noisy.
FTO lifters are not all made by the same manufacturer. A lot of them are made in china and quality could be different. Mine started to tick again after 30000kms so maybe I got some cheap chinese made onces.
You can grab them on ebay USA and they are roughly 100 bucks a set but unsure which ones are for the FTO.
you dont take the heads off to do the tappets, only the cam cover, if you tear it (they're rubber) then just replace with exhaust gasket sealant like every other workshop
