2005 Ford F-150 Pushrod Parts Q&A

• Q: How Should Pushrod Servicing and Repair Be Conducted on 2005 Ford F-150?

  A: A suitable solvent and compressed air allow you to clean the push rods and remove oil residue from their passages. One should avoid trying to straighten a push rod at any time. The push rod inspection should verify that ends remain free of damage, notched surface or grooves and rough sections while also checking for excessive wear. New push rods should replace ones that fail inspections. When inside the engine the straightness of push rods can be verified either manually with a valve closed or with a combination ofBracketry and Dial Indicator. A new push rod needs replacement when any single rod exceeds manufacturing specifications.
