Wrist pin circlips

Post by PaulD » Sun Apr 28, 2019 3:45 pm

I wasn’t going to remove the pistons originally but to be safe fitting the new rings and also to decarbonise the tops it will be easier if I do. I’ve been scouring tinternet looking for new circlips as I don’t want to chance re-using the old ones but I can’t find any for sale? I’ve tried the usual websites (Crookes, Robinsons & Suzuki vintage spares) but can’t find any listed. Any recommendations guys?
