Question
 I have replaced the engine seal twice in the mower and it always tears when putting it in.  Is there a special way to put these seals in?  It seems really a tight fit.

Answer
Hello Pete:

Sorry for the Delay. This Question was Located in the Question Pool. Have you Cleaned the Surface where the Seal Sits in the Engine Block? Are you Using Grease on the Seal when Installing it? Are you Using a Pipe or Deep Well Socket The Size of the Seal Casing to Put the Seal In? Thanks.
