You have to be very carefully with dirty holes. Usually smelly too. Always do the 2 finger test before sticking anything else in a hole.

Haven't you guys ever heard of soap and water. Regardless if its dirty or not it should be cleaned.

And also keep in mind that if your rod has a bend in it it might not slide into the hole smoothly.

Found the problem, I dipped my whole rod in assembly lube which made the hole a little to snug for the rod to slide into.I pulled my rod out cleaned it up and just a little lube on the tip made slide in nice!!
