ive never done it before. all i do is make sure the piston and rings are oiled along with the cylinder. mix some oil up with your gas too, extra lube for the engine. put a nice high idle on the engine once it fires up and let the rings break in for 15-20min. thats how i do it anyway. :wink:

lightly oil but after you press the bearings, you wont have clearance if there is a film of oil on the outside of the bearings
