Re: Pulled my Cam for Fuel Pump Push Rod

Have you tried doing a search? nah just kidding. I know your probably not in the mood. Stupid question, have you tired turning the rod? It has a a long bolt to hold it at one time I can see from one of the pics the bolt impression on the push rod. The rod must have gotten bent? I mean for it to be hung in there normally gravity just lets them drop down and out if the plate is removed. Can you move it in towards the motor and then try to turn? The motor doesn't look all gummed up or full of carbon, have you run into large deposits? Has it had a major something that could have over revved the motor to make the rod bend? I guess it is possible, anything can happen. But I would think it would take some major mistreatment to to something like that to a pushrod of that type and thickness. Jim
