Message	I agree with Cjw3 that #2 was delaminating a little. Some people take this as a sign that detonation has been present, but they'd have to look a the bearing closer. Also when measuring a curved part like the bearings you want to use the narrower tips of the jaws on the caliper. -Dan VTC Solenoid Caps and install instructions.
