pushrods on vacation... 120-130 1965

posted by  someone claiming to be cdu on  Mon Apr 11 17:51 CST 2005 [RELATED]


I was thinking more that he somehow bent then broke a pushrod
and that the pieces fell down the pushrod hole and those pieces
jammed against the lifter / cam and froze that into place, thus
breaking the timing gear. There were no holes or other places
for the pushrod to hide, though I will admit that I didn't look
down to where the lifter lives to ask it what happened.

"The car was making a noise. Then it made bang and stopped
running."

Indeed. I can see that now.
