Help please. I have a Wiggins forklift with a Ford 172 4 cylinder industrial motor. The intake valves stuck due to bad gas. Push rods bent. Had a valve job done, bought new pushrods, and got things back together. Cranking it over with the starter I notice one of the pushrods is not moving. I could see the top of the lifter so I thought maybe the lifter was stuck in the up position. Gave it a tap and it dropped about half an inch. Still doesn’t seem to go up and down as the motor turns. So, any ideas? The lobe stripped off the camshaft? The lifter cracked in half and the bottom part is in the oil pan? Anyone have something like this happen? What can I look at?
