KR>Re: HAPI crank Bearing removal and replace
Hi Marc That bearing looks like it a Great Plains force one bearing, the engine may have a force one crank installed. If so contact Great Plains for a replacement bearing. https://www.greatplainsas.com/force-one-prop-hub.aspx The original Hapi engine used standard vw bearing. The Hub needs to be removed by a press after removing the front bolt.

The owner of the Sam Bailey KR-1 has taken the engine down for rebuild after finding "Chrome oil." He has been having difficulty rebuilding the HAPI engine. The shops he has been taking the crank to do not know how to take the 4th bearing off the crankshaft.. One shop attempted to heat it up and then take it off that way but it didn't work. One offered to shave it down using a lathe and then breaking off the last portion once it's thin but no one seems to know where to find a replacement bearing. The person rebuilding the engine has not been able to find a shop that can magnaflux the crank with a bearing on. Anyone have experience with HAPI engine rebuilds ?

Re: KR> Hapi Surefire II Ignition
I had a Hapi Ignition that used a Bosch 009 with advance it was chopped shorter, and a disc with magnets was installed. It then had a potted hall effect sensor package on top. The Ignition module and coils were the sam as the non advance version. Al Hawkins Port Coquitlam B.C.

It looks like the system that Great Plains is billing as a secondary ONLY system, but mine includes a couple of electronic modules that were bolted over the typical magneto hole on the accessory plate. Does anyone else run a similar system? Are there any major problems with running this setup?

KR> VW Engines
I have removed the Force one hub by making a specialized puller. You copy the hub bolt pattern into a 1/4"thick steel sheet. Remove the prop bolt and hub washer. Take a socket and install the bolt thru it into the hub, then add another socket so that it sticks out the front of the hub a 1/4". For the 2nd socket I used the one used to remove the prop hub bolt. Install the plate over the socket, adding 6 bolts thru to hub, tighten them up to about 50 foot pounds each, make sure to tighten them evenly. Then hit the plate in the center with a hammer, the hub will pop off and will be prevented from falling on the floor by the hub bolt. I have used this technique twice to remove the hub.
