While we are on the subject, think about this–the CRANKSHAFT is the inner race for all the bearings. If the bearings are damaged, there is a likely chance the crankshaft surfaces are also. Then it becomes fatal.
Like this one I found in one of my motors. Note one of the bearing needles was completely missing when I opened the case!
