GM Terminal Removal Tools Hey All. Admins Im not sure where to put this thread considering there is NOTHING Directly related to ELECTRICAL unless its under a subheading for something else. As a newbie and as a former GM Technician I would expect more from such a DETAILED forum as this.
With that said I am looking for a company that sells the GM MetriPac and Weather Pac TERMINAL REMOVAL TOOLS......you may have seen them in a Technicians tool box but had no idea what they were for unless you observed the Tech using them to DE-Pin wires from connector bodies. The two most common are the round Yellow tool and the Green Flat blade tool.
ANY help is greatly appreciated.
Have any Admins considered an Electrical Forum all its own or is it best left to subheadings requiring hours of searching?

I know Matco used to sell a couple of diffrent pin pusher sets, However they probably came from Ken-tool Since they got a lot of tools like that from them. Im curious as well on this one if there is a better way to get them. back when I was selling tools those were about 70 bucks a set

Those two tools will depin 99% of all GM connectors you run across
These are good all-in-one units but hurt to use for long periods

Barrel style weather packs require an actual tool, but most push-to-seat terminals can be removed with a paperclip

I got all my GM connector tools from Waytek Wire ...and you won't spend $23 on that little green one either. It's only $9. They seem to carry just about everything made by Delphi, terminals, too.

The green Deplhi one posted above is great and will do about 85% of all the GM connectors on an LS car. There is also a purple one that looks just like it except it is a bit wider which works great on some of the larger connectors so you don't bend the green one, like the picture shows.

I have the green and red lysle 6 sided tools. Between the two you can release most pins. The exception is some of the smaller Delphi/metri-pack stuff (I've only seen it in the newer GT series stuff) which you can easily do with a small jeweler's screwdriver or a pin, or by popping the front cover off and using one of the thinner pairs of pins on the green tool.
