Message	I got the Nissan double-layer spring clamps that I'm putting on as I re-do the under-hood fuel lines and they're proving to be not the easiest to work with. I've managed to get several on so far, but a couple have bent at the tabs, making it so much fun to wrestle them into place. Aside from making sure I'm grabbing as close to the base of the tabs as I can get when I expand them, any other tips? I've still got about a dozen or so to do. Maybe it's a fluke - only the last couple have given me fits. - Aaron
