Anyone into rebuilding engines knows that 1948 & back rod bearings Ford are big bucks (floating bearings) Made short we received
the bearings and looking at the box and printed ink I know exactly where they came from "military" as expected they are entombed in cosmolene. Gas and kero diesel has worked for me in the past, but these are NOS 70+ yrs old. Gas Lacquer thinner does nothing.
Any ideas >> hot water - hair dryer ? thought I would ask can't screw up $250 worth. sam
