Hi guys

During my cam install, I took the heads off (lifters replacement) and one of them fell in the engine
Question is, how can I get him now ? Can't find the information

Thanks

Richard

If you are lucky, you will only have to remove the oil pan and find it there.

Well I was lucky
I got 2 of them through the valley cover
and the 2 others by slightly moving the oil pan and using a pen magnet 😊
yes I lost 4 lifters during the process 😅
