That works ok, or you can use a pushrod to pump them up while submerged in oil.

In a 98 Cavalier once the lifters get used to the style been driven do they loosen up If so how can you tighten them?
It has nothing to do with the lifters getting use to your driving style. Lifters rarely loosen up. Lifters wear over time, thus causing the gap to widen, creating lifter clatter. On solid lifters, that is why they must be adjusted periodically. On hydraulic lifters, this is not necessary, as they automatically adjust for the gap due to wear, if they were installed and adjusted correctly in the first place.

How would you go about repairing the lifters on a 2000 mercury cougar my buddy said they might just need to be tightened but it's a slight clicking noise. can anyone help?
Depending upon the engine you have in this car, there are 2 available, both being Dual Over Head Cam (DOHC) designs, but the 2.0L has replaceable shims to adjust valve lash (to stop loose valve noise); however, the 2.5L has hydraulic lifters (self-adjusting) and if there's noise, it's likely time for more indepth diagnosis/repairs.

How do you tighten rocker arms?
Hold the pushrod between your thumb and forefinger feeling for up and down movement as you tighten the nut. When the pushrod has no up and down movement, that's zero backlash. If the cam has hydraulic lifters, you would tighten the nut an additional amount (usually about 1/2 turn) for preload. NEW ANSWER: before you perform the above steps you MUST make sure that the engine has been turned over so the base circle of the camshaft is up on each cylinder that you are adjusting. ( that means that the lobes on the camshaft are down and not against the bottom of the lifters ) So the valves will be closed after the adjustment has been made correctly. This is VERY important. You will have to turn the engine over everytime you start on another cylinder. On new hydraulic lifters the perload would be a full turn after push rod start to drag with your fingers.

What advantage does oil have over a hydraulic fluid?
oil will not evaporate as quickly as hydraulic fluid even though hydraulic fluid does not evaporate easily therefore you will not have to change the oil as often
Is it necessary to replace hydraulic lifters with a head gasket change?
No, it's not necessary. Still, I'd advise doing it if the vehicle has more than about 90,000 miles. You have already taken the engine apart to that point, so the additional parts and labor are minimal compared to what you would pay later to have it taken apart all over again.
