Stuck mine in a 350 oven for a couple of hours, it went on with just a mild push plus a couple of taps.

One could probably do that with a factory balancer on a factory crank , but aftermarket balancer , and a crank made by a diifferent company , I wouldn't bet on it .




I have put them in water and boiled it for a few minutes to get enough
expansion to get it on. I mentioned that to Fluidamper and they said that was probably OK, they just had never thought of it.




What about getting it off though , heat or just sign of the cross and hope for the best ?

I have a magnetic bearing heater at work so I can get it up to 300-350 pretty effortlessly ...





Never had any problem getting them off using high pressure grease when installed. I'm not talking expanding it .005"+,,just maybe .001" or less with the 212* water heat. Just enough to go on easier with normal resistance than what it felt cold.




Your original post made it sound like you took a balancer that would not fit because of size and you heated to get it to expand and pressed it on ???
