Well, I'm not sure what you are asking here exactly. Yes, if a pushrod would plug up, it could mess up things by not oiling a rocker arm or the tip of the pushrod. The rest of the engine would be okay, just maybe not the area that is affected. (Although it would PROBABLY get oiled by the splash from another neighboring pushrod) Is this getting complicated yet?!! If you do regular maintenance, there is not much of a reason for the pushrod to plug up. > > If I am missing anything here let me know. I want to thank you helping me > with this.
