Removing clip without ripping pipe (pic)
« on: 06 June 2009, 13:23 »
Am removing this totally bodged valve with a new one.

Anyone know how the release on the clip works? I dont want to rip the fragile looking pipe.

use some wire cutters to cut the lump off or use a hacksaw thats the only way to get that type of clip off

Yeah good question! Id like to know the story behind that too.

Anway 8 quid later, ive got a new vw one, although it doesnt have the pipe coming off it where the white cap can currently been seen.

thin screwdriver into the crimped end and lever it side to side to loosen the crimp also works
