A little spec of dirt can get in between the journal and bearing which creates friction between the two surfaces causing them to gauld and spin the bearing out of it oil journal. Please dont post if you dont know what you are talking about. Dirt spins bearings period, why do you think it is so pertanent to change the oil after doing any work on the motor?

You posted a thread asking for help, he offers help and you attack him. I thought you've been warned about this behavior already!

Maybe it is the oil pump who knows, until I pull the cam I wont know what we are up against. Im also not in a very good mood since I have to bust *** to get this thing together before he has to go to school next week. If you dont like me posting that he is wrong(IMO) then ok, you are a mod and can edit it. If I have ruffled your feathers with my current(to some all the time) bad attitude, I am sorry.
