I've never heard of a crank bearing going bad unless you are sucking air and dirt, but I'm pretty sure I'm not. Mac, when running you're 200, did you notice the pinging I described, 1-2 under decelleration, and when you blip the throttle slightly when in neutral, pings/knocks on it's way back down to idle? Mine makes all kinds of knocking/pingin/ noises when cold, and you hold it at 1/4 throttle, but when warmed up and cleaned out, none there, only when reving, or under decelleration. How could I tell if I'm sucking dirt and air?
