Hi,

I'm probably too late with this, but it sounds to me as though your new
pilot (spigot) bearing is too tight. You said everything was fine originally
but now the first motion shaft is spinning all the time the engine is
running. 

I gave up changing those bearings years ago because it wasn't really
necessary. If you have a good 140 oil then you've also got a speck of dirt
that's keeping things spinning.

Cheers, "Bob".
