ok i have one last question i promise, haha
the connecting rods crankshaft bearing caps. the ones with the needle bearings in the cages, So I have the ones where the needles all fall out when you take the connecting rod cap off, is that happening because they are worn? or are they just loose? I have read online that there are loose kinds of the cages and the ones where the needle bearings are held in the cage. looks like if i order the parts new from Evinrude i would get the ones that are held in the cage and that would make this post rather redundant, but i have question regarding the loose type below
What is the method for reinstalling these on the connecting rod and the crankshaft, im sure many of you have run into this, and any attempt i make to install these just result in the needle bearings falling out everywhere as half the cap is upside down when reinstalling, so does anyone have the procedure for this? i cant find it anywhere no matter what i look for, would really appreciate some help!
