Power Piston Disassembly

(1/1)

brown7373:
The plastic retainer for my power piston is shot.  The kit (Cliff's) contains a new retainer, but obviously the piston needs the hanger [pulled out.  How?  Not sure muscling it out is the way to go.

Mudsport96:
I just put a flat piece if steel across the top of the carb body and use a screwdriver to pop it out. Just have it as close to the post as possible

Cliff Ruggles:
No need to take it apart, the new retainer is "split" to slide over the hanger........Cliff

brown7373:
Cliff, I saw the split, but didn't realize it went all the way through.  I will replace it.  Thanks!

Cliff Ruggles:
Yes, it just slips in place, no need to take the PP apart.....
