[QUOTE="Hilly_70, post: 610477, member: 4142"] Thanks guys .. Ive checked with plastigage on number 2 bearing (as its the split one) and clearance is 0.002 in .. I can't turn it with my little finger, its not quite that free .. bearings click into the case ok without much force.. The engineering place took 9 months just to get it done in the first place so didnt fancy taking it back for another 9! Any suggestions? .. bearing clearance seems in spec with the Bentley manual.. How can I check if the case bore is too tight? Thanks Hilly [/QUOTE]
