Pilot bearing has just started to make noise



In some of my CarDisc for the Giulia 101 they tell you to "soak the pilot
bushing in engine oil at 120 degrees C (248 degree F) for about 4 hours, let
it cool down, then install the bushing into the crankshaft with the aid of a
punch". And to "soak the felt washer in engine oil at 45 degrees C (113
degrees F) for about an hour; let it cool down, then install the washer in its
seat".

I think that if this is done when each time the clutch is replaced you would
never have a problem with the pilot bearing making a noise.
