You probably wont see this comment since the video is old but I cried a little when you talked about coping with stuff, my current situation ticks all the boxes except the relationship one. Im drencher in studying and finacial worries and dont love my parttime job. What I wanted to say is tinkering with engines is my therapy as well, probably why im watching the whole PW series. What you said really resonated, love the channel. Hope you read this, you guys’s content is medicine for me

I think I remember something in high school auto shop about bearings wearing into a camshaft and crank shaft. I guess on a car engine you have tight specs and on a PW50 engine you can mix and match bearings that are not from the original crankshaft.

"Eat the fireworks" LOL :-D You are a very talented man, i don't think there is much you can't do :-). Pullers are a god send, they just make the job so much simpler, i have a two arm puller from my teens (a bloody long time ago lol), used for pulling bearings off puch maxi engines. They were cheap ones but worked so well. You are spot on with the life understanding, it has a habit of causing problems you have no control of, don't panic is the best way of dealing with life. But its sometimes hard to stay calm.

You can check the bearings of your chrankshaft by hitting the pleul, while the rest of the chrankshaft is in the air ! If you hear a ringing tone, the bearings are dead (;
@lifelikedandy6 жыл бұрын
Im not sure but I think you loaded the inner ring of the bearing while pulling it out of the case. This causes an axial load on the balls, which then mess up the race. One should always load the ring that is being held to the shaft or case. Love your videos though. Keep up the great work.
@benjaminmclaughlin47467 жыл бұрын
At least there was oil in this engine to prevent rusting!
@GaryLordsWayMinistry4 жыл бұрын
You should clean off the crankshaft and get it free from rust and dirt before trying to pull the case of of it dragging the crankshaft through that bearing and causing cuts in the rubber seal on the inside of that bearing. Or it too will leak after pulling the cases of of the shaft.

There is a rubber damper on the primary gear I think. If you are wondering if it's damaged, search for a picture of it on ebay, partzilla etc. and see if it matches yours. Good luck.
