Video tutorial

This video shows how to remove and replace hydraulic lifters on your car. First, you need to disassemble all the upper parts of your engine: cylinder head, camshafts, and then reach the lifters. Once all the various components are opened and disassembled, remove the old lifters and install the new ones.

Before installation, remember to oil the anchoring seat well. The lifters are essential for your engine as they transmit the rotational movement of the cam into a linear and alternating motion that controls the opening and closing of the valve.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
