Needle nose pliers are all I can think of. Maybe hold in place with some sticky tape while using the pliers one handed.
Whenever an honest man discovers that he's mistaken, he will either cease to be mistaken or he will cease to be honest.

Hold the rod in a vice so the idler is horizontal with the stub axle pointing up.Position the clip on the end of the stub axle, then push it home with a small socket (if you have one!).
The world looks so different after learning science. For example, trees are made of air, primarily. When they are burned, they go back to air, and in their flaming heat is released the flaming heat of the Sun which was bound in to convert air into tree.
