Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if my roller bearing needs replacement?
Signs of a failing crankshaft roller bearing include excessive engine vibration, a knocking or grinding noise from the engine block, or the presence of metal shavings in the engine oil. Reduced engine performance can also be an indicator.
Will this fit my 70 HP Johnson if the model year is not 1977?
This part is only confirmed to fit the specific model 70773S from 1977. While it may fit other years in the 70 HP range, we cannot guarantee it. Always verify the OEM part number for your specific engine model and year before purchasing.
What is the function of this bearing in the crankshaft assembly?
The roller bearing assembly supports the crankshaft, allowing it to rotate smoothly within the engine block while withstanding high radial and axial loads generated by the pistons. It is essential for reducing friction and preventing wear on critical engine components.
Can I reuse my old seals with this new bearing?
It is strongly recommended to replace all associated seals and gaskets when installing a new bearing to ensure a proper fit and prevent oil or pressure leaks. Reusing old seals can compromise the repair.
