I'm looking to purchase a GOOD set of snapring pliers. Any suggestions? I bought a set from Sears when I did maintenance on the rear hub...and they were JUNK (IMHO). Getting ready to put on another rear tire, so I thought I would lube the hub/pins again since I'm 3/4 of the way there anyway...seems like these two items should go together!!! As always...thanks for the suggestions/comments!

Any tips on how to remove a stuck vacuum hose without damaging it? The rear vacuum hose (on the nipple to sync the carbs) is being really stubborn and doesn't want to come off. I tried rotating the hose on the nipple with a pair of pliers, which usually works to break hoses free, but the pliers started digging into the outside of the hose, and I don't want to damage the hose or put too much force and break off the nipple. I tried pushing it back (hard, which has also worked for me in the past on other vehicles) with a flat screwdriver levered on the fake cooling fins, but it just doesn't want to move. On larger hoses, like radiators, I can slide a thin object in and around the mating surfaces, but there's no room to do that here. I was thinking of trying to let wd40 penetrate for a while, but thought I'd throw it out here to see if there's a simple trick I'm missing. The vacuum cap came right off. Just the hose is being stubborn.
