    Randy,
    Sealed bearings are not shielded bearings!—Two different items.
    And David Bartlett, the fuel mixture does not pass through those bearings. Originally they were greased.The bottom one has a felt wick and condensation created when running has a tendency to settle in the bottom bearing, which is not good long term.
    I suggest and use sealed bearings.
