Doug,

I just had a massive, in ground failure of water lines last week.  I 
bought a tool at Lowes (in the plumbing department, near the black poly 
pipe) for $17.  The clamps were a few dollars for a bag.

They worked flawlessly and I was very happy with it.  For the money, it 
was a great investment.

I would show you a link to them online, but Lowes webpage has the WORST 
search feature I have ever seen.

Hey boys,


Any recommendations for a OEM style hose clamp pliers (or whether it is 
even a 
good idea)? My Aprilia came with the flat band OEM style hose clamps, and 
after 
changing the coolant, the shiny screw-style hose clamps I used to put it 
back 
together look pretty awful. 


Anyone with experience installing the flat-band style clamps? 

thanks,

doug
