the 'carrier' is the slitted block that slides over the shaft onto the stud and gets torqued down to 25 psi. I should have known you'd be a first responder, Scott. � �thanks, man. � where are we price wise for an assembly ? � � �mike

if it's a Rocker Arm Assembly for a 1.9 wbxr engine you are after, I
have many.
Not sure what a 'carrier' is.
I have dozens of spare push rod tube sealsas well, and push rod tubes

Van has been only a little off all summer for weak oil pressure from incorrect seal. when the tube was replaced ( IDK how long before me) an outer seal was used inboard. new seals are in appropriately - tube no longer wobbles in place. did the valves per Bentley - shaft carrier held in place with extra washer temporarily per Samba thread post. so, as the subject lines reads, I'm in search of a carrier for an `85� 1.9. willing to buy entire shaft if necessary. reply here and show your support or PM me and be an off-season Secret Santa. thanks in advance - now, back to your regular programming ...� �  =(:|)� � �  mike
