<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><<If your Front engine bearing has two rubber
seals you should not remove them. These bearings have their own grease and can
help stop oil leaks. If your bearing has two shields, we recommend you remove
one of them. For instructions on removing your shields take a look at this <A

Section</A>.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Your Rear engine bearing should be open on both
sides to allow as much fuel as possible to pass through and act as a lubricant.
You may however want leave one shield on in the rear which would help to protect
the rest of the engine from any foreign matter getting through. This should not
be done with one seal. If you find your engine is stingy in getting fuel to the
rear, you should definitely leave the bearing open.</DIV>
<P class=body2><SPAN class=body2>In our next issue of the Boca Bearings Tips
& Advice </SPAN>Newsletter we will show you how to remove your bearing
shields. >></P>
<P class=body2>Note - if you open your crankcase, using sealed bearings, and the
crankshaft counterweight it dry-looking, or the lower part of the bearing isn't
pooling oil, you may think about removing the seals. I do, for this
reason.</P></FONT>
