I used the kid's Play-doh.
Just don't tell my daughter.
Love tricks of the trade stuff. Save's time and doe pun intended. :thumbsup:
doesn't work on the 302 Ford... Just spend the 30 bucks on the right tool and make life easier... and cleaner.
Have used moistest bread, no crust 1/2 inch socket extension. Done half dozen times, works soooooo easy
I didn’t watch the vid but I can tell you that the wet toilet paper and bolt method works 100% on a pushrod 302Quote:

I don't think there is enough clearance behind the outer part of the pilot bearing (because it bottoms out against the crankshaft) to have the bread grip and push. You'll notice there are 2 notches on the outer piece of the bearing which I can only assume are specifically for a pilot bearing removal tool. I recently changed my bearing and rented the tool from Canadian tire with a slide hammer. Even with the notches the removal tool slipped past a couple times.Quote:

I bet Pascal would be proud his laws are alive and well in the automotive hobby
If bearing is in good shape but a lil dry, much rather give it a squirt of grease n free up the rollers vs subject the crank and bearings to blows from the slide hammer.
So breads not limited to stopping drips when trying to solder , cool
