I've changed the head on my girlfriends Mitsi Galant and the lifters are clapping around inside the rocker cover like firecrackers, do these things have to be primed or will the oil eventually come up to the hydraulic lifters.

The rocker shafts are oriented correctly and there is oil in the engine.


Thanks guys and I apologise but I cannot afford to buy her a real car right now.

Yes,,They need priming...But should shut up after 30 sec of initial startup.
