Put them in a cup of very hot water. This will soften them and expand them.

Excellent suggestion! I've already done it now lol, typical. I used the method of getting angry and taking my fingerprints away. Nice tip for next time though!

Theyre fresh and large now, so im having trouble getting them to pop into the injector seat. Should i use copper grease?
