Can anyone share with me an easy way or the best way to install those wrist pin e-clips on a Stihl BG 55 leaf blower piston? Thanks
If u have an old clip like I've see then there is no "tab" and is alot more touchy but if u have a new clip then....
Assuming u are familiar with the groove the clip fits in,
- take the end of the clip without the tab and wedge it in the groove. my pic doesnt have it but some stihl pistons have a cut at the bottom so the hole for the wrist pin is not a full circle. if so, put the end inthe opening at the bottom.
-take the needle nose pliers and grab the tab.
-start pushing the tab to compress the clip while gently pushing the clip into the opening with your finger\another tool until it slides into the hole. slide\tap it in until the whole clip falls into the groove. Thats it!
