Bob, I don't recall seeing "dark spots" on the bushings -- several of =
which I've replaced before -- but maybe I just didn't pay attention to =
them.  I changed the bushing in my BJ8 about 1-1/2 years ago (from Moss) =
and put it in hot engine oil and let it cool in the oil for 24 hours =
before installation.  It couldn't hurt to do that, anyway.=20

I'm getting ready to do an engine rebuild and replace the clutch on my =
BJ8.  Bought a new pilot/spigot bush from Moss, but I seem to recall the =
ones I've seen before had small dark spots that I assumed were from the =
oil that is impregnated  into the bronze.  The new one appears to be =
just bronze; are these (still) 'Olilite' bushings?  If so, are they =
supposed to be soaked in oil before installation?

=20

TIA,

Bob
