Cool! Thanks everyone. I got the top on the motor.
I just took the alternator apart and sure enough, the bearing on the
backend seems to feel a little rough. So... I am rebuilding t he
alternator.
I noticed that there is not much grease on the bearing back there.
Should I add a little more and if so, is there a a specific type a
grease I should or shouldn't use?
-Thanks -
