I just rebuilt my motor about 600 miles ago. I spun a rod so I had the crank machined and got acl race bearings. Now I was having problems again and I took at apart and all my bearings are bad. The mains look alittle worse then the rods. Whould a bad machining job on the crank cause this? I just dont want it to happen again. How should I check to make sure that its getting oil and not blocked? Any other ideas?
 
well I just ordered a refurbished one from the machine shop. It comes with the bearings and everything.
 
And before you put it back togther get the rods resized or replaced the odds are after all that pounding tne big end is more 0 than O if you get what I mean.
 
yea, ill make sure I do that. Does anyone know how to clean the oil passages in the block? I want to make sure they are not clogged.
 
What else could cause every bearing to go bad so quick? Either they werent getting oil or the crank wasnt cut right. Any other ideas? Im trying to narrow it down so it doesnt happen again.
