how would I get this new unglued seal out for another try? I destroyed the
old one getting it out. New one had the tightest split I had ever
experienced but finally was able to push enough to get the entire seal into
the bore.

do you think I should go ahead and order another seal?

placing spring ends together and getting up into the seal insides was
difficult.. Can I assume once up there the spring stays??? Anybody know
??


Should have used rubber cement (3M's 847) on the outer
perimeter and in the engine case bore. The spring might have popped
off if you didn't keep the split ends lined up as you pushed the seal
in.
