Remove Driving Swage (9) With Crows Foot Pry Bar (12)
Remove the crimping swage from the injector bore. If the tool is stuck in the bore, use a crows foot pry bar (12) in the slot to work out the tool. Many times there will be a small amount of brass caught between crimping swage (9) and the injector bore causing the tool to stick. When the tool is removed, the top of the brass sleeve should be rolled over, trapping sleeve stud (3) inside the injector sleeve.Note: The sharp edge of crimping swage (9) must remain sharp and free of nicks or damage. This tool may be resharpened only on the inside cutting edge. Any sharpening procedure that reduces the OD of the cutting edge will result in poor tool performance and tool sticking.
