Re: What is with Rod Bearings dying?
the squirters must be replaced during a rebuild. They have a poppet valve in them and they stick open when they get old.
When Grooms did my engine they reduced the squirter size to reduce the oil diversion. I had my 91 TT engine rebuilt by them using a (used) 2G forged crank. They had the Clevite engineers look at the oil paths in the engine and made some modifications based on their feedback. Its run flawlessly for 10K miles.
