Bent push rod
My son was driving up a steep incline and bent a rod.
I have one bent push rod on number 3. I haven't looked at the other one, but I plan on replacing both.
I originally thought I had an injector issue on 3 and 5. Cylinder contribution test showed 18.0 on both cylinders 3 & 5 at idle. I have two injectors to replace both of them.
Can I replace the rods and hope for the best?
DO you see anything else I can check without tearing out the heads?
Is there a special procedure other than taking the rocker arm off and replacing the rod?
