I have a friend I am trading machine work for to work on his bike. He has an 80 shovel and needs the pushrods reinstalled. They are the stock hydraulic lifters. I am great at solid ironhead adjustments but dont know the exact procedure for a hyd shovel. Thanks in advance.

like busted lifter posted, the way i tell if its bleed out is when the push rod will turn free again, like 15 min. or as i was taught 1 beer per , it makes adjusting valves somthing to look forward to!
