It's time to do some routine maintenance on the engine this winter. I'm going to tear the motor down and replace the bearings. There are several different sets you can get from Boca bearings, which ones do you run?

The motor is a O.S. 91 HZ. Just want to hear what you used and the results. There are 4 listings for this motor

Or you could even try these

Many people have tried ceramic bearings and been disappointed with the results. They have not lasted as their price would have you believe. Some have failed spectacularly and taken the whole engine with them.

At the end of the day it is your engine and your decision. Do a search on here for ceramic bearings.

I go for the cheap and cheerful from rc-bearings in a ratio of 4 rear to one front bearing. The front bearing normally lasts much, much longer than the rear and won't need changing anywhere near as many times as the rear will.
