RE: First newbee mistake w/ generator on SpongeBob
Maybe you can contact the manufacturer and ask. I would assume(and you know what word meansWink) that they are very tight. I don't think you would want any movement in that area. Do you know what rpm the engine is operating at? I have built many engines over the years, but have not encountered anything like that. The old 356 Porche comes close with needle bearings but that it.
Main bearing caps(at least on car engines) are numbered and set to very, very close tolerances. Sometimes you have to "persuade" them on. Most times, removal is with persuasion.
