motor help

[killergsxr1]

well i made the mistake of buying a axial .28 and as normal the front bearing is leaking and giving me a lean condition even tho its super rich and the motor is sealed..my question is what bearing do i replace it with to fix my problem??

wow i keep hearing about the axials, I'm just wondering why they haven't corrected the problem yet?.. someone will be here to help ya shortly I'm sure!!

 

[killergsxr1]

if the front bearing is leaking fuel it can make it lean right?

 

[Combuster]

yeah it will make it lean becuase it is adding extra air to the mixture

 

[killergsxr1]

is there a better sealed bearing out there i can replace it with?

 

[Bankrupter]

LOL you do know the bearing does not seal out the air. this is a mith. on road mills you can see light threw... Think that would be a air leak right. ? Wrong... bearing does not seal out anything. Its all in the block. rubber seals on the bearings keep out dirt not air.

Try to lean out your mixture, you may find that the leak issue goes away. Running a super fat tune will cause more oil to go to the front bearing, there is a little hole that goes through to the under side of the carb (in the block) if too much oil gets to the front, it will leak out and not get sucked back in. Try that and let us know what happens.

If you still want bearings for the mill, check out boca bearings. Here is the Axial cross reference page:
