Ok nice I looked and they do have them individually. Do you know the procedure to take them out?

 

[hmdballa219]

The 2.3 DOES NOT have lifters. Even if you call it a lifter it is solid and not Hydraulic. This engine has buckets. They can be purchased from Ford but you need to know what thickness you need. So what makes you think you have a bad one? Is it making noise? To change one is a major deal, you need special tools, and have to make sure the engines crankshaft is correct location before doing any valve work.

Hmm ok. And it was diagnosed by a mechanic I know...it's clicking noise similar to a rod knock. Goes faster in noise with the more accelrstion I give ..when I took the top half of the motor off they sure looked like lifters

They look like a cup, they come in verious thickness. It's not an easy process to do. I have the proceedure but would not recommend anyone that is not a skilled mec. To do it. I've had to do it twice.

Do you think you could send me the procedure or the link for it so I can get an idea of how to do it?

PM me with a email and I'll send it to you
