Leatherman multitool can be usefull any time

July 9th, 2008 by admin

While driving throught the mountains my SUV broke down with a completeloss of power sure enough thetubing from the cooler hadseparated at a rubber hose joint. I used the pliers portion of the Kick to loosen one clamp then, used the flat blade screwdriver toreseat the hose over the tubing. Once everything was in place I used the pliers to re-tighten the clamp. We jumped back in the truck, restarted the engine and "voila" we had turbo boost back. We quickly closed the hood and got back onto the road. Without the Kick we’d have been stuck there for several hours waiting on a tow assist. I’m never traveling without a Leatherman Multi tool, again.
