ABSTRACT:
An existing bolt on certain V-8 engines near and laterally inwardly of the engine fuel pump is aligned with the fuel pump push rod driven by the engine cam shaft. When installing a new fuel pump, the existing bolt is removed and a push rod holding screw of sufficient length to engage and hold the fuel pump push rod is temporarily installed in the threaded opening previously accommodating the removed bolt. The holding screw is turned manually until it engages the fuel pump push rod to hold the push rod elevated while the fuel pump is being installed. The procedure assures that the push rod will be in proper operative engagement with the fuel pump arm when the fuel pump installation is completed, following which the push rod holding screw is removed and the bolt is reinstalled in the threaded opening of the engine block. Haphazard and unreliable methods of holding the push rod up during the fuel pump installation with table knives, screwdrivers and a variety of crude tools are fully avoided. The push rod holding screw positions the push rod with precision consistently.
