If the dimple is on the back side, turn it around so it will be easy to time correctly.

It sounds simple, but how easy is that procedure and any special tools required?

When I pulled the one off my old engine, it was pretty well stuck on there.

I used a HF gear puller, which is all I had at the time, and heat....the engine was on a stand.

As it was I ruined the old gear but had a new one ready.

You probably ought to have a replacement.

Do you have a picture of your current setup?

If it is on wrong (tooth mesh), you will need to pull something anyway.
