Junk, don't buy the Read Pro Review.

Okay, I've been repairing small engines in the neighborhood for years. The tappets flex because operators allow grass, mouse nests, and oil leaks in the valve cover to block the cooling fins. Lack of maintenance will cause aluminum cylinder heads to overheat and force the exhaust valve guide out of the head. The rocker arms then hit the rails, causing the pushrods to flex and then fall out of position. With twin cylinder engines, the problem is acute because the remaining cylinder continues to work, so a bent rod can enter the engine's crankcase and wreak havoc there. Simply replacing the handle does not remedy the situation. The head must be removed and replaced or removed and repaired. Some reviews can be written by people who don't understand the whole situation. i'm not that type I have bought these items twice. The rod end profile is incorrect and the hardened steel tip is not properly welded to the tube. THESE PUSHERS ARE BOOM! SUITABLE AS A MIX ONLY, after finding a suitable OE or aftermarket replacement I may update this post.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not the best
