🔧 SOMETIMES, A ROUTINE JOB TURNS INTO A MUCH BIGGER REPAIR.
What started as a lifter replacement and adjustable pushrod installation turned into a much more involved job when we discovered an overtightened spark plug and a damaged, stripped spark plug port.
The damage required removal of the rear cylinder head so it could be sent to a machine shop for repair.
This is a good reminder that torque specifications matter. Spark plugs and other fasteners can be damaged by overtightening, and what seems like a small mistake can quickly turn into a costly repair.
Whether you’re doing your own maintenance or having work done professionally, following the correct service procedures and torque specifications is critical.
At Rodeo’s Performance Garage, we take the time to address problems properly rather than cut corners.
🔧 Honest work. Fair prices. Service you can trust.
