Seriously, I just changed it and haven't even ran the engine yet. Its leaking from between the inner part of the bearing and the crankshaft. Is this normal?

Edit: I should note this is a picco .26 red dot.
 
There's nothing you can do!!!!!!!
It leaks, thats just the way it is.

Now it shouldn't be pouring out of there, but you will have fuel under the mil.
I know, it sucks
 
Dunno I just can't get it to run right so I was wondering about this. I haven't run it yet with the new bearing I just put a piece of fuel line on the carb inlet covered the intake and exhaust then put it under water and blew in the line. There was a fair amount of bubbles from around the front bearing. I imagine the oil from the fuel helps seal it some so maybe some leakage isn't a big deal?
