Hey all, I can't figure out where these little pins went when I took my supers engine apart 3 months ago. Any ideas? I thought it might have been from the old piston (the circlips) but I'm not 100% sure

If you only disassembled the engine, they probably are from the piston, but they're strange for me. In used to this kind:

yep, wrist pin circlips. Have you started to build the engine yet? By the way, do not reuse them.

Exactly what I thought. Thx . Yea the new bearings, seals crank everything's in pretty much just gotta put a new kick start quad and gear. Put cases together and put the final touches up. (I'm not using them I just got a brand new pinasco cylinder setup those are from the old just wanted to make sure)
