I had to use these clips on a mates resto and we modified a pair of pincers and did the trick :thumbright:

Good idea on the pliers Jim, I had heard of others doing this and that was my plan......

However, don't think I have a pair to hand and I've found one place that sells the actual pliers for about a fiver + 2 quid postage, at that price I'm probably better off just getting a set!

As you say Gavin, give it a practice on some spare tube and hose, but don't forget to post the results!

Looks like a real neat solution.....and you're right - I found an original application on my Dodge on the four fuel tank vent lines and the fuel vapour return line from the tank to the line tube, when I was replacing the fuel line on mine.
