Knipex #1099. It has two sides. One that cuts for removing the clamp and another that the ends do not touch for installing the clamps. It adds the correct amount of load.

  GoWesty says to use Bullnose pliers...just standards pliers?

  If you have used this style of fuel line clamp, what pliers did you find worked well?  Or is there a specific tool that is designed for these clamps?  (please post a photo/model number of the tool if you can)

  I usually use the kit from Van-Cafe.com which has screw clamps...
