The pushrod is actuated by the camshaft for the purpose of actuating the lifters/rocker arms which, in turn, pushes open either an intake or exhaust valve in the cylinder head.

To change the pushrod seals on a 1988 Sportster, start by removing the pushrod covers and the pushrods themselves. Then, carefully remove the old seals from the engine case and install the new seals, ensuring they are seated properly. Reassemble by reinserting the pushrods and replacing the pushrod covers, making sure to torque everything to the manufacturer’s specifications. Finally, check for leaks before taking the bike for a ride.

When you took off your old fuel pump the pushrod fell how do you get it back up?

The quickest way I know of is to use a small needle-nosed visegrip or pliers. Chevys also have a socket head plug directly under the pushrod that can be removed to tap it up. When you do get it to move up put some grease on the pushrod to hold it in place so it won't fall again. Mark
