Chiefss, many thanks for all your help, pictures received. The bearing I'm not sure about which is giving me a head ache is the main bearing in the center part of the engine, I guess it's the main bearing. Does it come out towards the front or rear ? If it comes out towards the front then I will have to remove the circular plate on the back of the bearing, the part with the cog/gear on it. How do I remove this, does the screw in the center undo and if it does is it a reverse thread ? I'm asking because the screw has a very thin slot and I don't want to ruin it. I'm sorry I don't know the correct name for these parts, it would be a help if I did but the disk on the back of this bearing has a notch in it where the crank pin engages. I just need to know how to remove this to get it off the bearing. Thanks again for taking the time to help.
