Subject:Push Rod Tube Leak????
From:Charlie Ford
Date:Mon, 3 Jan 2005 16:04:58 -0500

I have an 87 GL I have been driving of late and have noticed a coolant 
leak dripping from the head on the drivers side.  I pulled the tin back 
to see if it was the gasket and lo and behold it does not appear to be 
the gasket all.  The water appears to be coming from the push rod tube. 
  Not a very fast leak but one that certainly needs to be fixed.

Now, I have read about expandable push rod tubes and was wondering how 
difficult it was to replace said tube on said model.

if anyone could toss some advice and knowledge my way I would 
appreciate it.

Thanks,

Charlie Ford
