No, that would be incorrect.
Ceramic bearings do require lubrication to keep things working, but unlike steel bearings they operate under less frictional force and don't generate as much heat as steel bearings. That's why they can run using less lubrication. You still need oil in the fuel to cool the engine (to a point) and so the other parts like the rod and pin areas can still be functional and not fail!
This is what I've read somewhere on the Boca Bearings site I believe, so if they are wrong, then I would be too considering I got this information from them.
So if somebody actually knows and can confirm what they say, just tell me - that's how people learn
better. Not by basically screaming at them
