I Just completed this. I also skipped the disassembly of the whole machine as others have pointed out above. My battery was enormously swollen so much so that I wasn’t sure how to get the solvent in underneath it. I was able to push the battery up enough with the plastic cards to get the liquid in and start it working.

I think the swelling also meant that the battery had partially unglued itself so that made it a touch better.

Good luck all who try and thanks to iFixit for their amazing kit which is perfect in every way.

I had no options in Israel that I would trust to do this.
