So a few nights ago I was merely cutting the lawn and then all of a sudden the engine just quit. So I decided to take off the valve cover, and pretty much found all this stuff. Not positive I think the rest of the engine's okay. I have bent push rods before this is the first time ever broke...

In the past I have purchased parts on Amazon especially carburetors and I never had a problem and I know many folks are not too thrilled with purchasing anything on Amazon well it seems there's certain specific parts that Amazon can't get right + I think it's a waste of time to purchase them on...
