turns after applying a couple of dots of loctite to the outside of the sleeve (not too much).\u00a0 Then, I screwed the oiled bit into the sleeve and kept going.\u00a0 The bit eventually grabs the sleeve and drives it home into the ear.\u00a0 Continue to tap with the bit as the bit is designed to stretch the sleeve into place.\u00a0 Again, I drove the bit about 2\/3 beyond the bottom of the
