Looking for advice (obviously).
I"m working on the 8N engine (more as a learning project) and am down to cylinder sleeve removal. I have a "puck" that can be used to drive them in/out. My question is, how hard should I tap on the puck with the ol hammer before I go out an buy a press or just send to the machine shop. I"d like the experience of DIY, but don"t really feel like cracking the block. I"ve given her some taps but haven"t hit too hard, maybe I"m being too cautious. From everything I"ve read, they"re 090 sleeves, although the bottoms look more like 040, perhaps from wear, but they certainly have the fat lip at the top like 090.
So, I suppose the question is, should I - Man up and whack them harder with a hammer (how hard)? Go get a press and press them out? Make the two-hour round trip to machine shop?
