What_is_the_push-rod_placement_for_a_1996_lumina_3.1_engine
It's been a while since I've done mine. But I can tell you this, the intake push rods are the short ones.
The push-rods go through from the rocker arm to the lifter. In this engine, they are on an angle, the lifter is not directly below the dimple in rocker arm. Place all push-rods on lifter, (after making sure the oil passage is clear) then install rocker arm assembly, be careful each pushrod is in the dimple, and carefully tighten rocker arm assembly, start in middle, go to ends, back to middle and work your way to ends, then go back again with a torque wrench and do all to spec.
Sure can, Quick A bent push rod will cause a loose rocker A loose rocker has no way to bend a push rod, there is no pressure.
exhaust puh rod is longer. they measure 6 inches while intake push rods measure 5.68 in
intake short push rod, exhaust long push rod. put short push rod on rocker closes to intake manifold.

Remove the valve cover. Remove the center nut or bolt that holds down the rocker arm. remove rocker arm, pull out the bent push rod. Install new push rod and put it back together.
It depends on what kind of rod is being fixed. A push rod and a tie rod both need to be removed and replaced if the current one is damaged.
