Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if my upper main bearing is failing?
Common signs of a worn main bearing include a deep knocking or rumbling sound from the engine that increases with RPM, low oil pressure, and the presence of metallic particles in the engine oil during an oil change. Severe failure can lead to catastrophic engine damage.
Can this bearing be used in any position on the crankshaft?
No, this bearing is specifically designed as the upper main bearing. Crankshafts have multiple bearings that may differ in size and design. Always use the exact replacement part number specified for each position.
Is a special break-in procedure needed after installation?
While no special break-in is required for the bearing itself, it is good practice to run the engine at varying, moderate RPMs for the first few hours after a major engine service like this. Avoid full-throttle operation immediately. Always follow the guidelines in your engine's service manual.
What causes main bearings to fail prematurely?
The most common causes are oil starvation, contamination of the oil (with fuel, coolant, or dirt), improper installation (incorrect torque or orientation), or excessive load and operational stress beyond the engine's design limits.
Is this part for both 2-Stroke and 4-Stroke models?
Yes, the compatibility table confirms this bearing fits a wide range of Yamaha V-type 2-stroke engines from 1984 onwards. Always verify your specific model and year in the list provided.
