Classic sob story,
I was installing a new piston and I guess when I was "finessing" the piston, connecting rod and greased needle bearings into place, the bearing cage and needles had slid down out of place
Unaware this had happened but aware that something wasnt quite right, I pushed the flywheel a little too far and CLICK. My heart sunk. When I pulled the piston back out of the cylinder I found the cage broken in 3 pieces.
Its item no 7 in the exploded diagram. P/N 31-62596A2
Can anyone help me out with either finding a new one or maybe ya got one from a dead motor that you are willing to part with.
Im really reaching out here.
Anyone??? Please.
