installing used lifters quetion

[turboblack2door]

i have a head with good lifters. I have taken the lifters out of it because i have a stuck lifter in my head that i'm using right now. How do i get the oil out of the spare ones so i can put them in my head without taking the timing belt off?

Using this article, you don't have to remove the timing belt to replace, remove, and drain lifters:

Use a tool like this if you can/need to to remove and reinstall them:

i have read that already but that is for revised lifters. I need to know how to get the oil out of the stockers.

Go to the first link I sent you and scroll about halfway down and read under Priming/draining the Lash Adjusters.

It's the same process, you just use a different sized instrument (paper clip vs. drill bit) to insert into the lifter.
