Can just one lifter go bad?
Yes, just one lifter can go bad in an engine. A faulty lifter can cause issues like ticking noises, poor performance, or engine misfires. If left unaddressed, it can lead to more significant damage over time. However, it's often advisable to inspect and replace lifters as a set to ensure consistent performance.
How do you fix lifter that stick's when cold but stop's when warm on a 2004 Chevy vortex s10?

87 Chevy S10 28l V6 and one lifter collapsed and warped the pushrod Can you just change that one bad lifter and do you have to take off the intake manifold to get the lifter out please help?
You can change just the one lifter, however you should determine why it went bad. The intake manifold must come off to get to the lifter. Is there advanced mileage? do you change the oil regularly? Seeing how it is an 87 vehicle, with 19 years of use on the engine, I would strongly suggest changing the full set. Be carefull though as there is the possibility on that engine of 2 different size lifter bores. If yours are oversized it will be stamped on the lifter bore (not on the lifter) 0.25mm 0.5 There should also be a white paint mark at the bore.

I have a 73 torino and theres clicking coming from the head could it be a bad lifter?
Yes, or it could be a lifter out of adjustment. Some 1973 Ford Torino V8s had solid lifters that must be manually adjusted. Depends on which engine you have. If your engine has hydraulic lifters add a can of Seafoam Motor Tune to your oil. Follow the directions on the can. This will clean the lifters and possibly save you the trouble of replacing one.

How do you change a lifter on a gm 3800?
To change a lifter on a GM 3800 engine, first, remove the necessary components such as the intake manifold and valve covers to access the lifters. Then, carefully remove the pushrods and rocker arms associated with the lifter you wish to replace. Use a magnet or lifter removal tool to extract the old lifter and install the new one, ensuring it sits properly in the lifter gallery. Reassemble the components in the reverse order, checking for any torque specifications and ensuring everything is properly sealed.
How do you replace a lifter in a 2.5 S10 motor?
Remove the valve cover, and feel the rocker arms, if it is indeed a bad lifter, then you should be able to feel it (feels sharper). Take the intake manifold off, and there is the 4 banger equivalent to a valley cover, it's just a plate. Once you have that off, and the rocker arm disassembled, you should just be able to pull out the bad lifter(s) and put the new one(s) in.

Can a bad harmonic balancer ruin your engine?
A bad balancer can cause failure for more than one reason. First, an unbalanced engine can have severe vibrations set up that will cause material failure in the engine, and it will break internal parts. Second, the balancer can come apart physically outside the engine. If this happens, the loose part can cause damage all over the engine room, and if caught in a belt or pully, jam the crankshaft. I've seen this happen!
Why is 87 ranger 2.9 losing oil pressure and pinging realllly bad after it warms up?
WOW! I own an 89 Ranger 2.9 and I am going thru the same thing you are. The only difference is that one of my lifter/pushrods is tapping really bad so I'm going to be replacing the lifter on that one. The way I found the tapping pushrod is I took of the valve covers and started the engine to observe the pushrods and see if they were staying wet with oil. Which revieled the bad lifter not providing oil to the pushrod. One thing that helped the tapping is I added half to 3/4 of a quart of transmission oil and ran it for about a week. Transmission oil has a high level of detergent, this was to loosen sludge that may have been clogging the lifter. Then I changed oil/oil filter and added a hole bottle of LUCAS oil stabilizer to the new oil change substituting the proper amount of oil. And as I started the engine I could hear the tapping gradually go AWAY!! I'm still going to change the lifter and also replace the engine oil pump which will run $70-$80 and $20-$30 for the gasket. The lifter was $6 and the intake manifold gasket was $44, valve cover gasket is $11. I'll now need a good/cold six pack of Coors Light, a Styx CD and follow the Chiltons manual very carefully.
