Hello Listers,

As a faithful lurker living in Holland this list has taught me many things
about Triumph Trbs of which I have put some to good use.
I have started to take the head off the engine of my Tr3 in order to have  the
valve guides replaced, as the oil consumption has become rather high. Itbs a
TR4 high port engine.
As I am not an experienced mechanic this is a major job for me and I feel
somewhat unsure. I removed the manifolds and everything else what is in the
way and have taken off the rocker assembly.
I thought I was well prepared and had done my homework, but I ran into this
problem right away.
I got a fright when I lifted a pushrod out and it would only go back down
again partly.
The same with the second pushrod. Am I missing something?

Regards,
Jaap Dekker.
