<VV> engine area noise

Oil is not going to do it.  MUST be greased.  In fact, it would not surprise 
me if oil would wash any existing grease away from the bearing in short 
order.

The original style bearings have a rubber seal around the top.  You need to 
get under the lip of the seal for certain.  How deep?  Don't know as I've 
never used this method.  Others may comment on that.

Later, JR
