Yeah I know...but it's hard to get motivated to work on that car, since
it'd be time I could spend rebuilding the motor for the purple car. The
idea was to just "quickly" replace the bearings and get it drivable.
But on the other hand, it annoyed me, so the only solution to being
annoyed is to beat it, in other words fix it. Spent the day today up at
Big South Fork and was wishing I had a Midget to drive there. The girl
I was with even commented about how nice it would probably be. :-) But
the CR-V with the new Michelins did a good job too. heh heh...

looks like this engine will have to be pulled so the crank can be

Right you are Adrian. But once you have had it machined and polished
and get
new bearings in that you have carefully and sanitarily installed
yourself you
will feel a whole lot better about the engine. Regard this as an
"opportunity to improve" rather than misfortune. That is what keeps me
going
on mine these days. LOL
