I have an FR651 I want to rebuild.

In looking at repair manual and parts diagrams I can find oil seals but cannot see any crank shaft bearings?

Am I just blind??

No bearings.

Hmmm an engine without bearings. Seems strange but explains why I can't find them. LOL

Bushings? Just turn on the aluminum case?

Yes, very few of today’s small engines use bearings anymore. Last one I worked on was a Kohler K-series

Mower engines are made to a very low price point which is why Honda exited the mower market near a decade ago .

Except for push mowers!
