My experience was kinda like that too, atleast the first time. I now change it every year, and it is easier than the first. I lubed the end of it w/ motor oil b4 insertion and i put it in w/ an orbital rotation and gradually pushed harder as it went in but careful on the orbital movement cause I snapped one messin' w/ it. Pull old one out w/ the hose connected to it may help, too - it did for me.
