That's for the fuel-injected pushrod. It opens and closes the EGR valve.




I have no idea... Good luck.

Pics?

I'm not certain, but maybe it came from the cam chain tensioner? Other than valve springs, that's about the only other thing in the head that I can think of that might have a spring in it.

Ya, I'm guessing the spring was just laying around, and you picked it up by accident. I've done it plenty of times, and after hours of trying to figure it out, a few headaches and a couple busted knuckles, I realize that said piece belongs on a completely different component, on a completely different vehicle.

Pics would help a bunch, though.
