Step 1: The Piston Mechanisim
get two white connectors and two white rods. attach the white connectors to the rods like in picture 1. then get the motor. and attach the two white connectors to the side of the motor like in picture 3 with the white rods angled down. then get a yellow rod with 3 grey spacers and one blue spacer. then push it into the motor with the spacers on the left side as shown in picture 5.
