I have an S4 NA enigne that I am rebuilding, my stationary gear bearings were both pretty worn so I had some new ones pressed in. In the front bearing I replaced with a FD main bearing, and for the rear bearing I had a Racing Beat 3 window bearing installed. Now for the problem when I did a test fit with the new bearings on my eccentric shaft the rear bearing would not fit onto the eccentic shaft!?! it just gets stuck on the taper, what should I do any advice would be greatly appreciated. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png

put some oil on the bearing and the e-shaft. You can also try manually wearing it down i.e. push it back and forth on the e-shaft until the bearing "breaks in" to where it will fit better.

You are probably going to have to get a new bearing. How was the bearing pressed in? If you dont use the mazda special tool or something similar your bearing may have mushroomed. |
I think that's what Chris told me to do with the rotor bearings IGY...just figured it may work for the rear bearing too https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif

Doh I tried with oil this time and carefully pushed it onto the eccentric shaft. and spun it around for a couple minutes spaying wd40 into the oil hole of the stationary gear every now and then, was that bad? I had the bearing pressed in by my mazda dealer so they better have used the bearing install tool.
