first are u mechanicaly Inclined ? mechanic's know when and to and how. cause that has me wondering by u asking this question as your sliding in new brg's. yourself. may i ask... do you know how this is done? as your saying guys just slipping bearings into motors... [engines] . you look how brgs are wearing, measure your clearances with plastiguage on tear down. look and measure the crank. it is not nessesary to be regrinding the crank if all is good and can be repaired with a set of brg's. plus the amount of hrs. on the engine, and oil changes are in play also. the more often you change oil the less engine wear you will have. plus using the correct oil for the weather and not pulling the guts out of it like steady lugging. and is this engine using oil? need to know that also. thats another thing that is never said here. never ever hear someone say my tractor is burning a gallon of oil a day so i better give it an overhaul. and if you plan is to do brg's at least do the rings also. as i always say when someone says they just overhauled the engine i get scared. just nicking the crankshaft with a rod bolt is something you will never know till the next tear down. and all the other stuff not measured or checked. pull a piston out replace the rings and stuff it back in , and good . ya right. lots more to it than that. everything inside the engine is telling a story so read it. and when someone gives free info listen closely and observe that info, not get all pizzy pants and tell a ticketed mechanic off like he has no clue, then they do the opposite. there is a few here like that . my squawking for the day.

Today's Featured Article - What Oil Should I Use? - by Francis Robinson. I keep seein this question pop up over and over again in discussion groups all over the web. As with many things there are often several right answers and a few wrong ones. Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ?
