there should be a circlip on the inside of the piston, you have to gently pry it out, then push the wrist pin back through that side.

Wobbly cranks are no good. If its the rod you are talking about - slight side play is ok.

First put some rags down in the crank so if the clip falls you don't have to split the cases to find it.

Now, pull one (and only ONE) of the clips - careful - they pop out and will cut your finger if it is in the way (cut mine last night!)

Slide the wrist pin towards the side where the pin is removed and the piston comes right off.
