It's not the end of the world but you can see it from where you are.Remove the rocker arm assembly and the push rods.Then take out the push rod tubes in question then replace them with the expandable tubes and reassemble.
It's a pretty easy repair. oleblue----- Original Message ----- From: "Julie" <julie.hey.ho.lets.go@xxxxxxxxx>

So is it the end of the world if one of my 1600 engines is missing those pieces of tin that go over the push rod tubes? I have been told that I can take out the middle two push rod tubes and put the pieces of tin in and then replace the extracted push rod tubes with those flexible push rod tubes. Is this my only option other than pulling the heads and all of that? Julie
