Crankshaft Sprocket Question.
 
What's a good way to put the crankshaft sprocket on, like with what type of tool and where you get it? Thanks again very much for any info.

If you are talking about the timing gear on the crank..I heat it up like on a coffee maker hot plate or a slow cooker and then tap it on with a piece of pipe that fits over the crank. You have to do this quickly while it is hot so get everything ready before hand. It goes on very easily.

You live in denton?... you can lay it in the sun for an hour or two and tap it on with the pipe like the guy said above.

I use a propane torch to get it hot if I'm in a hurry though.
