I agree on pressing in when you can.
Pressing helps to keep the installation vertical.
Plunger should be sized to emphasize or at least cause equal pressure on the OD of the seal.
On outboard motors, they recommend a thread locker for installing a seal. 2 events here: 1. The locker provides initial lubrication for the insertion. 2.
