|
Well, quite remotely at this point, I needed to replace the springs in the pushrod as part of this SI! As I mentioned previously I thought I was not part of the ECI Service Instruction, but it wasn't a few days after I sent out the response below that I noticed an oil stream on the belly (I have a no fluid on the belly policy) I traced it back to a cylinder and started thinking about the Service Instruction, so I took the plenum off and sure enough there was a leak coming out of the pushrod. I called ECI and they Fedex'd out the parts needed. I give them credit for the great customer support with this. I filled out a warranty form and 3 days later the parts and new gaskets were shipped to me.
Mine were not broken (yet) but the springs were showing wear (118 hours) and there appeared to be stress cracks developing, hence the loose of tension to hold the pushrod in place (attached).
