The spud insertion tool comprises a cross-shaped body having four arms extending from a center point thereof, each of the arms terminating in a different head, each of the heads being configured to be insertable into a respectively sized couple, the force being sufficient to compress the flared portion of the gasket such that the flared portion can pass through the hole of the fixture.
