Hose removal tool(s) (Page 2/2) Orig88GT-NC MAR 06, 09:33 PM I have pretty good luck using these type of hose pliers for pulling smaller hoses. You can find them pretty inexpensively. I also have a pair of the pliers that TheOgre has, and agree they work better on a little larger hose if you can get it in the right position. theogre MAR 07, 09:55 AM Main problem w/ those is just have big handles in many cases. In other cases, long nose can reach some hard to get hoses. The top tool can have size problems too in various ways either tip end doesn't fit in small spaces or not enough room for whole thing. Example: The small bar barely fits to get vac lines off 700 Series TBI for 87+ Fiero 4 cyl. So often over time you may need all of these & more. Is part of why I buy "weird tools" at flea markets etc because may need them later & can't get them for many reason when needed. I even have some 100+ year old tools not just to have but use. Examples: Often find 1 tool @ 1 vendor & get very cheap but often need pairs to work on X so just wait till find another cheap one like Hose Pinchers in https://www.fiero.nl/forum/...HTML/146722.html#p26 I now have several in different size/types to handle bigger coolant lines to small vac lines. Ford Model T "rim crusher" can pull other things besides changing/fixing tires etc. Can use is in smaller/weird spaces that won't allow chain/cable "come a long" things & doesn't take space as many hydro "port a power" kits to store too.
