Technical help needed

May 20, 2006 0 Replies

Hi,



A newby needs help. I am presently replacing main bearings on a JAP Model



  1. I've got to the stage where I need to actually remove the old bearings from their housings and then refit the new bearings. The questions I have are :-


1 What is the best way to remove the old bearings?



2 What is the correct way to fit the new bearings?
3 How do I set the preload on the bearings?

I know that this is a fairly lowly engine, but I do have a couple of Lister CS lined up, and I know where there is an open crank hot bulb engine dry stored for many many years I am hoping to get. I just need some practice first :)



regards



alan
