Default need a circlip tool

So spring is here, and I am finally getting to put the 3.6 together. I have new circlips coming, and I need to find a circlip tool, 23mm I believe.
Anyone have a good source for one, or perhaps one I may borrow.

Thanks for the help.

No tool here Emerald, but are you wrenching on Friday by any chance? Like to see the progress if you are.

Mike,

Just noticed your "location" under your avatar and almost fell out of my chair laughing. Around here, any set of directions to any location includes either, "Go past the Baptist church..." or "If you get to the Baptist church, you've gone too far." Thanks for the chuckle.

Hey Mike,

I will be around the house Friday, swing on down. Even if you don't have a tool

You know what I am talking about. Someone told me that this place is the belt buckle in the Bible Belt. Insane the amount of churches around here.

I have no tool fine sir, but all the encouragement you need. I'll call you later.

Emerald, I have a circlip tool, I'm not sure if it's the type you need. I'll see if I can find a photo of one like it. If you want me to I can bring it to the Cars-n-Coffee tomorrow.

Mike, I think that was Vince's saying "We're the buckle of the Bible belt", I liked it too.

Supposed to be great weather tomorrow, cool but sunny, I'm tired of this 86 deg. stuff already.

Hey Bill, that would be great. Let me know, because if you can't find yours, I am going to go with Steve's suggestion and order it from Stomski.

Thanks,
Emerald

You talking about the wrist pin circlips?

Check out:



Pretty easy to make one if you have access to a lathe...I can send you some pictures.

Cheers,

Mike

It would be great, but I do not have access to a lathe. I remember thinking that when I read your journal on the rebuild.
I guess I will just order one from Stomski.

Thanks.
Emerald
