Air in my lifters???

Post by WRXdan »

How can I tell if I have air in my lifters? I resealed my valves so I had to pull the rockers off. I kept the rocker assemble face down while I did the work. I didn't remove the lifter. I was debating whether I should do the pump up under oil trick but didn't because I'm lazy. When I rotate the engine all the rockers press down on the valves. Is there a way to measure to be sure all the rockers are pushed equally? :?:
