Bearings are used in the engine and transmission assembly to reduce power loss, heat and noise
resulting from friction. Because bearings are precision parts, they must be maintained with proper
lubrication and maintenance. If a bearing is damaged, replace it immediately. When installing a new
bearing, take care to prevent damaging it. Bearing replacement procedures are included in the
individual chapters where applicable; however. Use the following sections as a guideline.
