I've done probably a hundred of them, or more.
As others have said, you can often knock the old ring off with a hammer and punch, or cut it off. Regardless of how, the idea is to get it off.
I've never found a need to cool the flywheel. In fact, when your in the field it's not an option. So, unlike others, I begin by simply laying the ring, RIGHT SIDE UP/DOWN on the flywheel. This way I know it's right, and don't have a last second screwup that could cause me to have to cut a new ring, after it's put on the wrong way.
With it lying on the flywheel, simply begin running the torch around it. When it gets hot enough to go on, it will all but drop on by itself. That said, it's still a good idea to have a hammer and punch on hand to I insure it seats all the way, just in case.
Ultimately, it's not all that hard to do, so don't feel intimidated. If you have any other problems, just ask.
