I am not sure which fitting you have, but the smaller (say under 1") stuff should use a tool similar to a lisle ac/fuel tool. You can pick the lisle up at most parts stores.

I assume this is on the '97 (model?) that's listed on your sig? Are you talking about the "spring-loaded" 3-prong hose clamps?

Are you talking about the main upper and lower hoses? If so, and youre referring to the spring loaded clamps, a pair of vice grips works perfectly on that.
