Slipping the carrier back over the "hex" I have left it sitting proud just to show you alignment. (Yes I have chewed my nails, a rather taxing week thus far!!!)

This, I guess, is the bit you can stuff up, as I have said previously the carrier is a lot softer metal than the injector SO on the way OUT this method may STRIP the carrier body, HOWEVER on the way IN as it is nice and clean, I used the "hex" that is part of the INJECTOR to lock the whole assembly into the spider.
I learnt as a a young fella what OVER tightening a STEEL nut into and ALLUMINIUM body would produce, yeaup Ummm Dad I have a problem...
So easy on the pressure I am sure there are TORQUE figures but I rely on "feel" for smaller applications.
Ok hope this helps mate, I am off to cook dinner for her lordship, and a nice glass off Central Otago Pinot Noir!!!!
