I had it happen with both types of engines, Took more than 100 runs to
manifest itself. Plus, when the grease is gone the bearing runs
dry.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Is that on a 2 or 4 stoke engine? I haven't had
any problem on my OS this way so far. Am I just lucky or is there a
difference in bearings and the grease in them. I installed a
bearing made by Bearings Limited distributed by Purvis out of
Dallas. I know of several guys in this area that do it this
way.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=719213213-22102003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>FYI - the
grease will leak. If you are pressurizing from the crankcase it can make it
to the tank and the fuel supply. The grease congeals just like snot (sorry
but that was the best description available this AM) when mixed with
methanol. Also it has reached the metering slot in the carb. more than
once for me.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Some of us have been just leaving the seal and grease
in the bearing. I had replaced the bearing on my OS and the first
replacement bearing I removed the seal and rinsed the grease out of it and
just used after run to lube it back up after the install.
Well!!! this bearing only lasted about 20 flights. New bearing
in now with seals in place has over 50 flights and doing fine.</FONT></DIV>

<P>
<DIV>Hello,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have some replacement bearings for my ST3250 that have the covers
over the balls. I think they may also have some grease packed in
there. How do I remove the cover to wash it out. Do I just pry it off? I
don't want to mess up the bearing.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks in advance.</DIV>
