I have finally completed the video for the installation of our throttle shaft bearing kit. Visit it at YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

For some reason the video is unavailable.

It may still be processing.

its up and running. Youtube never took so long on my others

Would it be adviseable to put a light smear of sealer on the OD of the bearing before inserting? I ask this because the throttle shaft bores can be a source of a vacuum leak.

I would probably do one thing differently from the video: I would wait on tightening up the throttle plate until both sides of the shaft were supported by the new bearings.

you could, but the bearings are supposedly sealed

i look at this again. you say outside diameter. this is a snug fit really, and the bore where the bearing goes into is not the same as the throttle shaft bore.
