I have to swap out a piston so am looking for the Harlee circlip removal/installation tool.
Thanks

It's the tool for removing/installing the circlip I'm after, not the pin.

Just get very intimate with a small flat head screwdriver. That's how I remove and install XL circlips. Twin Cam circlips are way worse.

As Phelan said, you do not need a special tool. A small screwdriver will easily get them out and you can out the new ones in by hand.

Just make sure you stuff rags in the crankcase cylinder openings before you start so one doesn't find its way into the bottom end accidentally.

Okay, I'll give it a shot and see how it goes. I'll get this old pile back on the road yet!
