TurboTobz Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Haha. Although a hammer is good for getting them in the bores but not in the conventional way of hammer use lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EPnick22 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) if you need a hammer for them to go in then im sure they shouldnt be going in at all lol! Edited September 18, 2013 by EPnick22 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TurboTobz Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Noo, compress the rings sit them ontop of bore and use the shaft of the hammer to gently tap them in, that's how I was taught back in the day anyhow lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EPnick22 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 or just use a piston ring compressor lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Yeah but after that u tap on the top of the piston with the handle of the hammer to slide the piston out the compressor into the bore ;) Hammer time! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
