[TR] Pilot bush TR3A

[Cliff Hansen]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t you want the pilot bush to be tight?  The tranny shaft should turn in the bushing, not the bushing in the crank.

I went through this yesterday, having had an awful time removing the old one
a few weeks ago.  Tried pumping grease to force it out but ended up tapping
a thread in it and then screwing a bolt through it until it hit the end and
the bush slowly came out.

I very gently honed the opening  as it was pretty cruddy and then gently
sanded the new bush until I was able to slide it in and remove it .

My new pilot bush for crank does not fit in easily.  I remember doing this
in my TR6 motor and no issues.  Is there a technique to use to get bush in
without damaging opening or bush?
Thanks
