Re: [T3] Push Rod Tubes


The tubes are of course not supposed to melt, but since they are made of plastic
it is possible. The telescopic tubes were made so they were replaceable without
removing the head (dont know why one need to remove the tube).

VW made their own collapsible telescopic tubes on the Vanagon wasserboxer
engine, these are made of aluminium and quite expensive, $19.95 each @ The Bus
Depot.
