I wouldnt trust a piston locker personally. If I have trouble with the engine turning over while tightening the clutch nut I just use a big zip tie. Double it over ant put it into the exhaust port as ezveedub said and then tighten or loosten it that way. I have seen some rubber tipped piston lockers but I still wouldnt trust them. You can mess up your piston real easy with them. With the zip tie it would break before hurting the piston.

this tool is your best bet, plus use a small drop of blue locktite.

Piston locker for turbo style motors:

Not sure that I would use one. It's metal on metal inside the motor. Can't be good regardless of what people say.
I use zip ties or even easier just shove the back end of one of your cleaning brushes into the exhaust port. Don't even have to remove the glow plug.
