oil out of pushrod tubes

why does the oil only come out of two of the pushrods out the rockers

it tends to even out as motor warms up but the stream is extreame

the pushrods are clean by the way-always soak in gas and blow out

Re: oil out of pushrod tubes

Luck of the draw.

The "vent" holes in those 2 rockers happen to line up with the hole in the end of the push rod; the others don't.

It doesn't make the slightest bit of difference.

I am indeed!!!!

I'm even picky about what I should be picky about. That way, I don't waste too much of my inherent ****-ness on things that don't matter, but rather, I try to focus it where it can do the most good.

That's just sick.... being **** about how to properly be ****...... call the nice young men in their clean white coats NOW please.
