Abstract A method and apparatus for use in changing a fuel pump on an internal combustion engine, such as a V-8 engine of the type in which the fuel pump is mounted on the side of the engine block adjacent the front and there is provided a threaded bore which extends into the block and intersects a passage containing a cam actuated push rod for driving the fuel pump. The threaded bore is normally closed by a common threaded bolt which can be removed so that a specially designed holding device may then be threaded into the threaded bore in a fashion to engage the push rod and hold it in place when it becomes necessary to remove the fuel pump for repair or replacement. The holding device may be provided with threads which will strip more readily than the threads of the engine block in the bore or with a soft inner end so that any tendency to over tighten the device when it is installed to hold the push rod will not result in damage to the push rod. After the fuel pump is replaced the holding device it removed to free the push rod and the common bolt is again reinserted to block the threaded bore. By holding the push rod in the manner described above, the push rod cannot slide from its normal position, which disk placement has in the past caused considerable extra work when one attempts to replace the fuel pump.
