🔌 Function

Transfers the cam follower's motion up to the rocker arm, so the camshaft below can operate the valve above.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Tapping or clattering from the valve gear
• Valve clearances drifting out of specification
• Push rod bent so it will not roll flat on a straight surface
• Ball ends worn, pitted or scuffed
• Rod jumped out of its seat after a valve has stuck

🛠️ Service Notes

• Roll each rod on a flat surface to check for straightness and inspect both ball ends before reusing
• Check the follower and the rocker socket for matching wear, and reset valve clearances after fitting
