Yep - the only thing that lets out more bodily fluids is working with braided steel hose. Actually, you will get the hang of it pretty quick. Just expand the loc, start one end and wind them in. My 351C has two per side. I used a smaller screwdriver that had a chipped blade to help guide, but if you get the one end in the groove good, the right "twist of the wrist" just spins 'em in.
