No oil in crank.Crank gets lube from oil in gas.

thats what i meant like theres no two cycle oil in my crank. its dry should i put like a tablespoon of twocycle in the crank?

it is a good idea to lube up the crank seals before you install the crank, and tes it is ok to put a little oil on the crank bearings too just dont over due it. it could possably foul your plug on initial start up(highly unlikely) better to have too much lubrication than not enough and gald the bearing surface.

yeah thats what i figured.

If you had a manual it would tell you to pack the seal with grease, may or may not tell you to coat crank with oil also where seal runs. That being said pour a little oil down the holes in case that dirrect oil to bearings.
