G'day, got a good engine for my utility. Its been bored 20 thou over at some stage and can still see the hone marks! Rings are borderline so may as well replace them while i'm at it. May as well put some new bearings ii while its apart which leads me to my question. Manual talks of a special too to support the inner race when pressing the crank into the top bearing. Does anyone bother and just press the crank in with no support? Was thinking of putting crank in freezer and heating bearing with a hot air gun to make it an easier fit and just tapping the crank through the bearing.
cheers
matt
