    Twist the housing until those crimps line up where it can come apart.  Watch out for rapid spring expansion.  Without a special tool that grips the two halves of the booster can, it is very difficult to twist it.  It only has to move 1/2" or maybe less.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
