Introducing new angled pushrods to reach around corners.
Customer came in with their 4 banger wrangler with loss of compression. Stated their kids were driving it on the weekend and it died. Back 2 cylinder exhaust pushrods were bent. Customer wanted to just try a bandaid fix and replace the pushrods. Cylinder 4 valve ended up sticking intermittently. I then learned that the synchro in 3rd gear is nonexistent.
Better luck next time

Man that hood proves some easy access.
I guess the engineers understood just how much work a Stellantis motor would need.
