My guess is; the guard was not installed to keep them from getting hit. Zoltan

Finally got around to fixing my pushrod tube leak. Found there was a 4 inch crack in one tube. Upon disassembly and removal of the push rods, I found two of them bent. Probably accounts for the one cracked tube at least. On the passenger side, as seen from the rear of the van, from back to front, it was the 2nd and 4th push rod.

The engine has run fine, but for the oil leak. But this has to be fixed. Anyone have two or four pushrods from a junked 2.1 L that they care to part with? Would be much appreciated. My van is down for the count as it sits.

Thanks,

John
