Common Airboat Applications
This pushrod housing fits several Lycoming engine families used in high-performance and airboat applications, particularly IO-360, IO-540 and TIO-540 engines.
When Should a Pushrod Housing Be Replaced?
Pushrod housings can become bent, dented, corroded, cracked, or damaged during cylinder removal and installation. Damage to the housing or its sealing surfaces can contribute to oil leakage around the pushrod tube assembly.
When replacing a housing, inspect the associated pushrod housing seals, retainers, springs and sealing surfaces and replace worn components as necessary.
Fitment Note: Verify your complete Lycoming engine model and configuration suffix along with the existing pushrod housing and applicable part number before ordering. Similar Lycoming engine families may use different pushrod housing configurations.
