Re-crimping can work!

Re-crimping can work!

Since it didn't occur to me until I was out of replacement crimping sleeves, I thought I's pass this along here to save someone else a little time/frustration.

Working on a friends old system. I ran out of replacement crimping sleeves chasing leaks. For a lark, I re-crimped what was there an lo and behold, it held!!

In retrospect, I would have re-crimped the prior fittings before cutting them off off and then cutting off sleeve, and crimping a new sleeve.
