Additional Information

The snowblower engine push rod kit, part number 951-11199, includes the components that connect the camshaft to the engine valves. As the engine runs, the push rods move the valves at the correct time to support proper combustion and airflow.

You might notice poor engine performance, hard starting, or misfiring during operation. Bent or worn push rods can also lead to uneven valve movement, which may cause loss of power or abnormal engine noise.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before beginning the repair. This repair involves internal engine components and precise alignment, so work gloves can help protect your hands from sharp edges and oil residue. Refer to the service manual for correct installation order and torque specifications before reconnecting the spark plug wire.
