<VV> Tricks for removing stubborn lifter

[HallGrenn at aol.com]

There is a neat tool available that expands to catch the inside of the  
lifter.  I now have one that I have used maybe twice.  But when  I disassembled my 
first couple of engines, and didn't have the whizbang  special tool I used 
coat hanger wire bent in half with the last 1/2 inch of the  two ends bent out 
about 45 degrees.  I inserted the bent ends, let the wire  expand in the lifter 
and tapped it out with a wrench handle inside the bend at  the other end.  
Hope that makes sense.
