I'm in the process of replacing most of the rubber vacuum hoses in my fuel-injection system on my '86 951. For those of you who have removed your intake manifold, you will recall that the factory installed many 1-time use hose clamps around the idle stabilizer.
I ordered the replacement (unused) clamps, but I'm not sure what type of tool to get to make the proper crimp? Can you guys help me?
I suppose that the other alternative would be to use the adjustable, screw-type hose clamps, but they are somewhat bulky (and $$) for applications where removability is not needed.
