The bearings looked great, the conrod is ok right now but it does have some wear, it is still within usable specs,so I performed a light resize. This will allow you to not put excesssive stress on the rod and get 2-3 gallons out of it on this resize. Then after that you will need a new rod. AS by then it will be out of specs.
Because of the precise taper we perform on our services, a light resize will need only a short breakin. Idle 1 tank through it then run it gently 2 or 3 tanks and you will be good to go!!



Thanks,

Lance
