Use an o-ring pick. Works great and that's all I use.

They also feel great when they slip and stick about 1/8-1/4" into your finger. Not that I would know or anything..

Lol. Picks work great. If your pistion has a cut out , spin the clip just past cut out and pop it out .

THE PICK OR THE CIRCLIP

The pick..You should try getting the ones in and out that GM uses on the 2.4 Ecotec engines. I've had a few words with those. Good thing is, the blood helps the piston go right back into the cylinder with minimal effort, and burns off almost instantly on start-up.

THAT WOULD ALSO DEPEND ON WHAT YOU HAD TO EAT AND OR DRINK THE NIGHT BEFORE! LOL

Al, my diet consists solely of milk, either whole or 2%, none of that water crap, red meat, potatoes, mountain dew and grizzly wintergreen. And I'm not kidding.
My wife and friends say it helps my pleasant disposition.
