Review: Cut my hand - Work great for my 212 rebuild. If you buy it go easy. I cut the heck outta my hand with this thing, it’s sharp.
Review: Worked perfectly - I bought this for my first time replacing piston rings in a vehicle. The tightening mechanism is stout, and the thumb tab loosens the band with just a push (make sure your hands are around the band when doing this, otherwise the spring tension of the band makes it quickly snap open too loose). At first, I thought the allen wrench supplied to tighten the band could have been a better design, as it makes it too hard to tighten the band after a certain point. After installing my four 3.150" pistons, I realized that this prevented me from making the band TOO tight. As it was, the band was tightened the perfect amount, compressing the rings just enough while still allowing the oiled piston to be easily tapped into the bore. No problems with the band itself being tapped into the bore along with the piston. Judging from the construction quality of this tool, it will last me a lifetime even if I start replacing piston rings on a regular basis (which hopefully, I won't).

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work on a arctic cat 90cc**
A: I don't know 100%, it worked on my 8 Hp Briggs & Stranton, the piston was probably around 2 3/4" dia.

**Q: Will this tool work on a Briggs and Stratton walk-behind lawn mower engine?**
A: I  used it on a 5 hp tecumseh with no problems as long as the minimum size of the ring compressor is smaller than the piston it will work fine. I've actually used it for car engines a couple times as well as the tecumseh engine and it hasn't failed me yet

**Q: What country is this made in?**
A: I think mine Taiwan

**Q: Will this work for a 2004 sportster xl883c?**
A: I didnt have good luck using it rebuilding a 1996 sportster once you get the rings in to the cylinder is real hard to pull the tool out
