Message So what your saying is that I hit the bucket/fake lifter as it sits atop the retainer? Thats a little risky because that pushes down the retainer and can allow the 2 retainer keys to pop out. Lifters if im not mistaken push only on the valve itself. The way you did it would be briefly releaving the spring tension on the valve and then the spring would slam the valve upwards as the retainer seated again. Thus seating the valve better. But I guess a little love tap would be ok. Others can chime In.
