<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>

<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>
