before you jump to conclusions, the most common issue is the plastic clips that hold the rod to the actuator breaks. it may be as simple as a 5 dollar clip. have it checked to confirm. The IMRC's are under the upper intake on each side. I couldnt find a good pic of the rods, but look on the ends of the items in the attachment below
