engine help!!

[scott321]

hi from the uk, i have a fs.18-sr motor (tamiya TNX 3.0)...and the main bearing is leaking. i need to get a new one but dont know how to remove the old one !....is it a simple job or is it a complete engine strip?...can anyone shed some light on the subject please .

its a complete engine rip ...youll have to cook your engine in the oven to take the old bearings out ...do a search on youtube ...there are some videos that will show you how

stripe out everything and baseicly bake it in the oven for about 10-15 min and you still may need some force to popthem out.i used a nut driver that is just a little smalleer then the bearing seat. check out you tube
