The thrust bearings I always lubricate as every single one is dry as a bone. One thing is you only want minimal lube as you don't want the oil finding its way out onto the cork. I'm just wondering if the screeching may be coming from the recoil starter, out of interest what engine are you running ?

I live a 24 Hour lifestyle, but every now and again I seem to fall asleep, well at least that's what my wife tells me.
