Any recommendations for a good piston ring compression tool that I can use on my 2.0 and 1.8 liter Type IV motors? I've had a couple of them and neither has worked very well on other applications, and the one I now have is giving me problems getting the pistons back into the cylinders with the new rings in place on the 2.0 liter motor.

Complicated and simple.
Both work. The Hazet adjusts to any diameter. The smaller ones are factory but you'd need a different one for each bore. Attached thumbnail(s) |
