What Kind of Engine are you asking about??? There are a couple different types. Some are tapered fit and others are not. But they all need to go on until they stop "SOLID"....or bottom out against the crankshaft lower timing gear/sprocket. If its not fully installed, you will have trouble sooner or later. Also...your accessory drive belts will not line up correctly. Make sure you have any washers/shims or timing belt guide washers installed first. It should be pretty obvious when its on all the way, especially if your using a impact gun. Good Luck
