Superjet mid bearing

[Ben34]

Alright, buying a mint 2019 superjet with low hours. Guy never greased mid bearing. Thinking of pumping in .68 oz of grease. That’s what the manual says to do after the first initial 10 hours. What do you think? Then every 1 year it said to pump .10 oz in.

Can’t running the ski too long on land with water connected to engine get the mid bearing hot since the back of it isn’t submerged in a body of water?

Also what cylinder comes on the 2019? 61x? I believe the cases are 62t?

Get it, add some grease and go.

If the pump has been out make sure to pull the mid shaft and clean/grease the splines inside and out. Most owners are to lazy to do this and end up getting sand in their splines when they reinstall the pump. Thats the real reason there are so many stripped mid shafts out there.

Since 1996 The came with 62T Cases with 61x cylinders.

Also everyone’s favorite question… oil. Is Amsoil marine ok to run in them? That’s what I run in my other skis at 40:1
