Hi there. Welcome. Could you elaborate on what you mean by "collapsed"?

Hey how are you
By collapsed I mean the first 7 lash adjusters are sort of free floating where as the others seem to be fully pumped up and fairly rigid I pulled the valve covers because the valves were noisey and two cyls were missing I found two rollers completely off
and when i removed the lash adjusters there was no oil in the passage to the adjusters. . . thats what I'm trying to figure out, why theres no oil getting up there?

Sounds like the oil pump has given up maybe? Did you pull the other side valve cover off...and check that area?

How many miles on the V10?

Hey thanks for the reply
I'm trying not to hear that though, not looking forward to doing the oil pump.
this beast has 188 k on it
I did pull the valve cover on the other side and the adjusters are pumped up but I didn't pull one out to see how much oil is getting through there I guess I'll do that next
I also havent put a pressure guage on yet but the dash guage reads fine all the time
