One useful thing is an air tubing cutter, my mate from Pirtek has one and they are very handy.

The USB camera is a great idea !!

I use OATS red coolant so no need for a UV torch to see the leaks

Thanks to all, lots of ideas for the page

"V pliers" is my poor description of hose removal pliers ...see Lisle 47900 Hose Remover Pliers | eBay. Brilliant device which "pushes" the hose off the tube thereby expanding the hose diameter and making the job easier. I found a set in Supercheap for about $12.

Hi

In terms of general tools, one I find i use a lot is a big breaker bar, about 600mm long. It takes a lot of the effort out of those ones done up to BFT tension

Very long pliers for EAS hoses and door trim panel remover tool...

A critical eye.
Multi meter for sure.
1/4" drive set is pretty handy.
Oil filter wrench.
Nitrile mechanics gloves.

A 6 and 8mm spanner to push in the collets for the eas.

Has anyone found a tool to undo the drainplug on the eas tank?



Sent from my GT-I9305T using AULRO mobile app

EAS Drain plug is a large hex, around 22 or 24mm from memory... I pulled it out to use for my inflation/locker air supply. Make sure you use the o-ring if you put something else in there or else she will leak.

Its listed as a LR tool. Never taken the calipers off, so dont know if it would be any more useful than a g clamp. Still, maybe one for the list?
