Had to take FX barrel system apart

Like a lot of you I wanted the carbon sleeve on my liner as it was such a small cost piece. As I saw on many youtube postings I removed my liner to only find 2 Orings.
After inspection I saw the last Oring stuck in the back of the barrel. I could not get it out. 1 bad Idea later I had 4 orings on the table :(.
4th Oring => liner centering oring after searching

The bad Idea: I tried to blow the Oring out with low presure and power settings => I did not know there was a 4th centering Oring in the barrel for the liner.
Impossible to reseat whitout taking apart the barrel.

So I removed the remaining Orings on the barrel
I used thickly folded aluminum paper to clamp the barrel in a the vise => zero scrashes :)
Then used a dremel gas soldering pen to heat up the barrel 10-15s
I had my thick insulated gloves and could just twist the barrel loose
=> some cleaning remained => this loctite comes of realy well when hot so have your cleaning tools at the ready

reseated the oring, used some loctite 423, reseat all orings, insert the carbon sleeve and done
Learned after wards FX uses 2700 => next time :)

Hope this post might be usefull for others
