OK Don. I have the 61x pre-chamber retaining ring tool that you may borrow for a month or so. It is a "Sir Tool" #M0007. Not the best of tools but designed to thread into the pre-chamber for alignment whilst the outer cylinder with tabs turns the ring. If you would care to borrow it, just ask. Fred Moir Lynn MA
