As Andy says block of wood and I cut the wood slightly tapered on one end and hit the piston at the side right next to the sleeve wall. If you hit the top it can pop a hole in it. I got one unstuck with nothing but a little splash of kero and hit one side of the piston and then the opposite side with every tap so the piston would rock in the bore a little bit.

Just tap those pistons easy, it don"t take much to losen them like I decribed.
