Title: Wynns Lifter Fluid in solid valve train
Post by: Webby the Bear on 23 June 2013, 11:32:23

Hi guys,

if a car has a solid valve train i.e. rocker shaft as opposed to hydraulic lifters would the engine still benefit from sticking some wynns lifter fluid in?

obviously I know there no lifters to ''declogg'' but would it help in other areas like gunk in oil galleries for example?
