What I Found

I was getting some oil in the automotive section of Wally World last weekend and came across this while passing by the bicycle tire repair stuff.

I filed a bevel on the end of the 14mm side. It seems to work well for removing HPO lines. I tried it on the connections, but did not remove the line from the fitting. It pushed back the sleeve to release the clip fine. The tire repair kit is $3.47 + tax and is an optional tool for HPO line removal. Most people should be able to locate one of these kits, if they need a a removal tool.
Just thought I'd share this with ya'll.

Nice heads up Roland. I made one from a cheap wrench I got with a laptop cart but the sucker likes to bend. But it does work. Next time I'm at Wally World this will be in my basket.

Got my 'puter back this morning. Glad to be able to be back on the forum on ''my terms''.

The wrench is thick enough to push down the sleeve without bending, but easy enough to bend if better access is needed. It is about the thickness of most die grinder wrenches and easier to find.
