Message I cleaned it off with a rag.

I applied Castrol HD30 to the bearings and the crank prior of setting the crank in there. The bearings grades are from the numbers punched on the block, and I have double checked everything with plastigage, everything is OK.

There was no grove on the bearing. I guess something was still dirty, or I did not apply enough oil or something...

I used a craftsman torque wrench and torqued the bolts according to the FSM. The wrench was calibrated prior to this.

I just hope I don't end up spinning the bearing sigh.

I have nightmares about that happening...I'd be the poor bastard you'd hear about on the news that gets killed by a softball-size chunk while spreading out my body over the hood and screaming "Nooo!" (Having a conversation about hail damage) - BradZ (FL) on March 25, 2005 at 9:56 PM

Tell your friend that you could take a dump, light it on fire and that would be hotter shit than his car. Probes suck, that's just all there is to it. - 300ZXpert (someday) on April 04, 2005 at 11:35 PM

P.S. You REALLY are on here at ALL hours! And I thought I was bad! :) - zmenon on August 16, 2005 at 3:06 AM
