No you don't heat the piston.. The pin don't even touch the piston. If you want to heat anything, you can heat the small end of the rod then you can push the pin back in by hand.Small press works good with wooden v blocks cut to fit piston. Takes four hands to do it but it's fast, best heat piston up with a heat gun makes it even easier. We use a small deep socket for the arbor to push pin in and out. Freeze pin when ready to reassemble and heat piston.

So you know there were adapters for that that fit the pin and the pusher went inside the adapters. If your handy that tool isnt to hard to duplicate.Thanks for the help as I have a good crankcase and wanting to take the piston off my 3700 and put on the new rod crankcase and put back together. I hate to damage the piston as it is in good shape. Thanks for all the help as I found a picture I might can make something, or use my press and hopefully not destroy it.

I guess the 3400 and 3700 are different from each other. I just changed a piston in my 3400 not too many weeks ago and don't remember it being difficult to change. I definitely didn't heat anything up. Seems like it had circlips..
Not aftermarket, bought from a member at AS. But you may have to forgive me, I didn't do it yesterday and my memory on this isn't too strong. I've probably installed 20 pistons since I did that one. I just didn't remember installing one that didn't have the clips, but it's possible for sure...Did you use an aftermarket piston kit? OEM does not have clips
