B-Motor Fuel Pump Pushrod Removal
Member Hooshpuppy (Dan) discovered that his fuel pump pushrod was badly worn when
his fuel pressure disappeared. It was stuck so far up in the engine that there was nothing
left to grab to facilitate it's removal.
Not to be upstaged, outfoxed or made to look like at least two of the three stooges, Dan
took a like sized piece of copper tubing and added some JB Weld. After it set up he was
able to extract the offending piece only to discover that it was a bronze tipped part that
was made to work on a billet roller cam which explains it'e premature demise.
The proper pushrod is now in place and everything is humming smoothly again.
