VW Special Tool for Stock Hose clamps...

>From what I have read before, the tool is not that expensive from Harbor freight store its around 12 bucks from there.  A regular auto parts store might have them for a little more.  The tool is the easiest way to do it because it has little nipples that grip the hose clamp really well.  What I use is a large pair of channel locks but one day I will get the tool.  It might help to warm up the engine a bit to make it easier.
