    ring compressor question

    Guy's,

    I just purchased a Piston Ring Clamp Set from Baileys. their is 1 part that was included in the bag that I dont know what it is for.

    It is a white piece of plastic in an "L" shape.

    Thanks in advance for the info.

    Hi,

    There is a Baileys forum that may be of help. It is on the AS:

    I thought it was a wrist pin pusher. Maybe I was/am wrong.

    Do you actually need that set? I always used a cut up coke can and a big hose clamp around it. That worked in the olden days on my scooters as a kid and later on I used this method on lawnmowers and weed whackers.

    The whole set is only $4.95, these work really slick and much easier than shade tree way.
