Before everyone says "search it, there are already a lot of threads on this." I've done it. My push rod was jammed, and the bolt on the block for holding it was out. I tried needle nose pliers, i tried small vice grips, i tried to get a thread die up there and the space was too tight, tried to mcgyver an extension to it and nothing. That beezy is stuck. I pulled my cam out and there's MAYBE an eighth of an inch worth of rod sticking out on the cam side. I tried pushing it out with my hand but that thing won't budge at all. Does anyone have any ideas or advice?
