Okay, I got the parts in (ordered online and didn't have to wait for a 5th grader to make them in Japan, they had them in stock) and I started reading the service manual on how to do the rebuild. I read a forum post about not having to remove the engine in order to do a top end rebuild, but what are y'all's thoughts about that? The service manual says to remove it. Also, any advise on the Piston pin puller tool? The manual says to get one but I know there are lots of little tricks to get around having to use the tools service manuals recommend.
