My mate might be sorry I brought the pliers around to his place. He couldn't work out why his bike wouldn't start after he left it sitting for over a year.
This is what we found when we opened up the carb!!

I just found that Amazon has the pliers for $20.00. Now I am going to buy one.

I WAS gonna buy some, but I've accidentally pinched blood blisters on fingers with pliers. I don't think I Want anything to do with anything called
Vampliers.
Hmmm,, maybe it'll suck the blood out, too...
Heck, gotta think about it again..

$18.03 here, black handles & a little less fancy looking.
No side cutter
built into the jaw.
Same company though so I suspect the screw head gripper part is the same. Free shipping.

I bought a set using the eBay link....they are coming from Japan. The seller ships on Mondays, the emails they have sent have been digital "engrish".
I believe they will get here eventually.

ISN'T it Amazing? Japan imports raw material, refines, smelt, whatever it takes, whoop up a tool,ship, send inland to distribution centers, someone has to ship it, and That's what it costs.

Gawdstrewth does that Amazon use crap exchange rates, OF's $18 ones are $40NZ by the time it gets here, and that's the slow boat.
