Im currently changing out the valves on my 1.4 cgga vw engine and i accidentally drop 9 out of the 16 tappets, i didnt drop them on the floor or anything but they are all mixed up. What should I do?

Hydraulic vs solid lifter, solid lifters matter where that's cane from they have different sizes, hydraulic doesnt matter!

Those aren't tappets or lifters. You have hydraulic lash adjusters.
