Spun rod bearing

[mondale]

C3L1CA- I don't think that it would be a wise choice to just throw a new set of rod bearings in that engine by the looks of it. Without machining the crankshaft, the bearings will likely start fail shortly after installation. Take your fingernail and run it across the crankshaft bearing surface, if it catches anything at all or even if you think you can feel a variance, get the crank machined. As far as the rod bearings sticking to the crank, I have had that happen to me on 3 different engines that didn't have spun bearings, yet they decided to stay on the crank so that isn't out of the norm in my experience. If you really don't want to spend the money, just throw a new set in, make sure you get your clearances right, and hope for the best! Worst case is you have to pull it apart again if it fails. Hope this helps!
