RE: Bent pushrod |

Is this engine in a vehicle? If it is and it has thousands of miles of wear then proper push rod placement is a must. Valve trains do get wear patterns.If this is a rebuild or the engine has few miles on it the you wouldnt notice the difference between pushrods when there identical for exhaust and intake valves. If its been sitting up all winter then the lifters have bled down and you need to pump them up or let them pump up. Its not something you always think of but if its not done then you face a serious chance of bending one or more push rods,collapsing the lifters, causing premature wear, and spending several sleepless nights and worried days in perplexed anguish over a small oversight |
