Those retainers are not too bad after you get the handg of them. Your best friend is a small pocket screwdriver and a dental pick (I'm sure Dave has one of those :-)
They pop in and out easily after you do it several thousand times. The reason we use them is because they stay put! Some engines get a double set of them to hold the pin even better or they get a chamfered wrist pin that actually forces the lock out as it pushes against the retainer. |
