Removing Pistons
Has anyone had success with commercially available piston pin removers and piston circlip pliers? Due to their high cost, I am trying to avoid buying the specialty tools from subaru. Thanks, chris

Cut the handles off of a regular pair of long nose pliers and weld straight rods on.
