i have a bunch if you cant find any.. jeremy

How much to buy a set off you?

Losing my excitement for this motor. I only have 1 1/2 gallons in it and rear bearing is toast, and I ordered the size listed in the manual that came with motor, guess what? The manual listed the wrong size. WTF?

There was a batch of engines out that had bad rear bearings. It's a known issue. When you replace it, or in this case, buy another new bearing, go with a ceramic, and you'll be good to go. I believe the size is listed somewhere here in the thread.

Kind of a shame that it's an obsolete model. I really liked mine.... Whatever steve is working on to replace it should be awesome though.

Known to who? If I had known I would have re analyzed my options. O well life is full of lessons.

If I recall correctly, there were several posts on the subject in this thread.

Regardless, it's still a great motor. I'm not running an SS.21 any longer, but I'm pretty sure I've got a set of bearings still in the package somewhere in my spares box. If you'd like to replace the ones in your motor with those, send me a PM and we'll work something out. If not, like I said, go with ceramics.

Edit: The rear bearing should be a 14x25x6. Is this what you ordered?

ok just got my second ss motor yesterday. started break in just idling 1 tank. that went great my 2nd tank it started flaming out. after going through 2 charges on my starter box new fuel line and a new tank i just cant keep it running. im using a re11( thats what the lhs told me to get) after a very pissed off day i realized that there was fuel in my air filter. and all day i noticed after it would idle for 10 seconds or so, when it would die it would spit back allot of air into the fuel line. please help

I got one new one time that did the same thing. Make sure the mid range needle is set flush. For some reason, the one I had was set a full turn out.

I love these motors, they are all I've ran for the past year.

What's up with this motor is it totally out of production? Can con rods be had? Any other co rods fit? Thanks

yes out of production

rods too I imagine, engine is real good
