The method is described of installing a well tool in a well flow conductor having a landing receptacle having an internal upwardly facing shoulder and forming a part thereof. The method consists of the steps of: a. providing i. a well tool having walls forming an upwardly opening bore at its upper end and having first friction means mounted thereabout, the well tool also having an external downwardly facing shoulder, and ii. a tool string including a running tool having second friction means thereon; b. frictionally engaging the second friction means of the running tool with the walls of the upwardly opening bore of the well tool; c. lowering the well tool into the well flow conductor on the tool string until the well tool engages the landing receptacle, and allowing the weight of the tool string and the well tool to force the well tool into the landing receptacle until its external downwardly facing shoulder engages the internal upwardly facing shoulder in the landing receptacle; d. lifting the tool string to disengage the second friction means of the running tool from its frictional engagement with the walls of the upwardly facing bore of the well tool and leaving the well tool with the first friction means thereof frictionally engaged in the landing receptacle; and e. withdrawing the tool string from the well flow conductor.
