According to Motor Trend, the Aveo has an overhead cam design, so I wouldn't worry about push rods, as they aren't present.When you change the timing belt on a 2004 Chev Aveo, do the push rods have enough room so they do not bend?Align cylinder 1 to TDC of the compression stroke. This way, the timing belt is aligned before you take it off. Then, don't turn anything while working on it. Make sure the cam and crank are both still aligned after you get the new belt installed.
