Jireh and other vendors offer a hose band clamp crimp tool for installing oem clamps. Do these crimp tools also work for removing the clamps? I've never had the proper tool and always ended up butching the ones I take off.

those OETIKER Hose Clamps clamps are one way, they need to be cut off.
Listen to the jingle the rumble and the roar.

So both the fuel and oil line clamps have to be cut off?

If they are crimp clamps then yes, you can use a set of end cutters or end nippers to crimp on a new clamp.

The Crimp Clamps are a one time usage clamp. A pair of diagonal cutters are all that is needed to remove the clamp. You just cut the clamp at the crimped section and remove.
