My terramite has been sitting for a few months in an unheated pole barn. It has a 20 hp kohler command, hydraulic lifters, 2000 hours. I use 10w30 oil. It was a warm day. It fired up hitting on one cylinder. I felt like either a lifter was sticking or a valve wasn't closing properly. After a few seconds it started hitting on both cylinders. Short of looking at plugs to see which cylinder may have a problem, what is the best snake oil for hydraulic lifters? Any snake oil for sticking valves or removing rust off the valve stem or valve?
I have some Lucas diesel or gas treatment. Will that help? Also have Howes and sea foam.
I plan to add snake oil to fuel and oil, park it outside and let it run full speed for awhile. Hope I don't have to remove the head.
