Subject: [Healeys] Felt sealing strips

Hi
Have installed new main bearings. The two in the middle took a couple of 
minutes, but the front and rear took the best part of the day. The felt 
sealing strips were very difficult, and at some stage I almost gave up, 
felt tempted to reuse my old ones. The front seems OK now, but the rear 
still have some material from the strip squeezed between the block and 
the cap. Will have to redo that tomorrow.
Does anyone have any good tips on how to do this? I seem to remember 
that these strips originally were made of cork, but even the workshop 
manual says to install new cork or felt strips.
