Default Priming Hydraulic lifters.

Hi. sorry if this has been covered before...
I'm near ready for a dry fit clearance test on my high lift NA Cosworth
My lifters are hydraulic and when removed I squeezed the oil dirty oil out, they are now squidgy and I'll be getting a wrong reading in the dry fit.
I tried to prime them but they wont firm up, all air squeezed out and pumped submersed in oil the right way up, still squidgy?
(2 of) Been in oil 2 days.
Any advice peeps?
Thanks
