This may be the dumb question on the day but I learned long ago to ask those with more experience.
I am rebuilding a IO-360 and was attempting to install the middle and back crankshaft bearings. They are really tight trying to get them to snap into place. How tight should they be? Should they push in by hand pressure. Should they be tapped in with a mallet. I could not push them in by hand and I'm afraid to tap them in with a mallet. I'm wondering if I wasn't given the wrong set of bearings. Looking forward to the easy answers from those A/P and AIs out there.
Thanks in advance.
