Do a search. I think I've written at least 3 threads on this.

You could use an eBay tool, but the thin metal spanner can damage the hydraulic cylinder, especially with the screw mount design on the 997. It is under significantly greater torque.

An expensive mistake can happen when you don't slow down over a speed bump too, lol...you just need to do things slowly and carefully the first time.
