I use to not give rod bearings a second thought...then I spoke to a really knowledgeable senior member of this forum who lives in San Francisco, and he recommended that I change the rod bearings every time I refueled...
I wondered if that wasn't a little too excessive since I don't race or track the car. He thought about it for a moment and we both agreed that I would only change the rod bearings when I changed the oil. His advice was spot on because I'm at 30k, have only changed the rod bearings three times and it must be working because I haven't had any rod bearing issues!
