I took my '76 2.0 to a different mechanic than the one I used before to have the pushrod tube seals replaced. He is telling me that he will need to put in collapsable tubes to replace the seal. Anyone ever heard of this or used them. If so, any problems? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

i wouldn't be too hard on the mechanic if he came to realize he was wrong, unless he works on 914's all the time, it's easy to forget these little things.....
it's not too bad of a job to do yourself if you have the time, space and tools....... |
