Anybody ever use one of those plastic installers? I have seen a picture and I think it was like $10.00. I have single .072's to install and was looking for an easy way.
Thats it, ever used one?
I hate em too. Finally got a set of pistons this year with buttons, and I'll NEVER go back.
x2 never had a problem doing it that wayPull them apart slightly and then spin them in. Use a pick to push the end in. The tension it creates by pulling it apart will help to keep it in the slot.
Joe! How ya been man?x2 never had a problem doing it that way

Doin good. The navy is treatin me well. Although I pretty much just go to school(nuclear power) all day, and get paid to do it. Not a bad deal. I've got 6 weeks left of my 6 month 'a' school, then I get leave. Then another year+ worth of schooling!Joe! How ya been man?
nice idea....they could easily make it one tool with different heads
I didn't know anyone still ran buttons.. I ran them in a drag bike years ago, and they did make piston installation a piece of cake..I hate em too. Finally got a set of pistons this year with buttons, and I'll NEVER go back.
