that won't always work, due to the recessed face of the BPV. what does
work 100% of the time is to purchase the one-time-use Audi/VW/BMW
clamps in the appropriate size (about a buck). pull your Craftsman end
nippers out of your toolbox and clamp them tight. (you already had a
set of those for pulling nails, yes?)
