RE: Bent pushrod ?? oil problem? dont think so!!

By kevin - 06/20/2001 10:15:01 AM; IP 209.240.220.208

If you bent a pushrod when you bolted the rocker shaft down, you did not follow Ford engine assembly procedure correctly. You must find #1 TDC and then turn engine 45 more degrees so it is halfway between #1 and #5 TDC. This places the least amount of strain on the rocker shaft assemblys. Be careful when you tighten them down and only go a 1/4 turn at a time on the bolts and watch the ends of the pushrods so they dont slip out. Make sure you dont mix up any more than you have to and try to install pushrods in same way they came out, and remember that the long bolt goes in the deep hole only (this is where the oil comes up to the shaft around the "skinny" bolt) good luck

This thread, so far...
