Abstract
Designs of a tool for seating engine pistons and related methods are disclosed. For example, a tool may comprise a mount element, coupled to a support element, with at least one sleeve shaped to slide onto one or more studs on an EMD engine block. The tool may also comprise a locator element, coupled to the mount element, having a guiding ring positioned relative to the at least one sleeve. The tool may further comprise a cantilever beam pivotally coupled to the support element. The tool may additionally comprise a push rod inserted through the guiding ring and coupled to the cantilever beam, such that a pivoting motion of the cantilever beam causes a linear movement of the push rod through the guiding ring. An attachment element, located on one end of the push rod, may be adapted to attach to a piston of the EMD engine.
