  Wayne:   Try a little heat from a heat gun.   That should free it up.

    OS 1.40 RX.   I know this has been hashed and rehashed, but how do you get the sleeve out of this thang?     
     I had a couple of dead sticks yesterday and this has been a flawlessly performing engine till then.   It went lean on me on one flight and seemd to load up in mid range then died.  Put in a new plug adjusted needle and flew again.  This time died at midrange after some extended run time at lower throttle range.  Checked all fuel lines and filter, OK.   Pulled engine out last night and opened it up for the first time and it looked squeeky clean... a little green from the Cool Power ful but clean otherwise.  So I am going to replace the bearing while it is open.  I have about 100+ flights on this engine now.
    Is this type of running problem indicative of bearing failure?
