Todd,here's a little trick. I was putting pistons in a Minnie Mo, and on the third piston we broke the ring compressor. I got a big hose clamp and finished the job, it works great and you can get them tight, the only problem is you have to keep moving it up the piston to the next ring but we finished the job that way. One thing I noticed was how tight you could get the clamp around the ring on the piston, tapped down enough to just get into the cylinder before the clamp mechanism interfered, then loosen off and slide up to the next ring..good luck with your job...Mike in Exeter Ontario
