Durite do offer a little multi tool, but I keep meaning to buy one and never have

As to how good or bad it might be, no idea.

But the tool I bought works brilliantly

I'm sure some of them would fit. They'd be a pretty common tool for a lot of pins and it's well priced. ( of course...probably Chinese so who knows on quality )
Worth a shot thouygh

Cant find my old order to confirm part numbers though

Although colour wise, it was more akin to this ( but pretty sure I seen the listing change over the last year or two )

Mine also fits the likes of the injector plugs which are Mini Timers, as opposed to Micro.
Those are Junior Timer/Junior Power Timer tools and no good for the small S6 pins which are microtimer.

These are quite useful to have around for the occasional terminal when you don't have the correct tool, but won't work with the S6 small microtimers.

I also found the Durite multi-tool sets (50-100 tools, can't remember) were soon consigned to the dusty shelf as useless.

The only tool I have found works for the microtimer pins is the t-g-s F435 - which, it does seem, they don'd do any more :(

I've used the t-g-s search and one of the ones recommended now is the F490 - that's the one also needed for the microtimer-I of the S8 (S6 uses microtimer-II) and I've just tried it and it does work :)

Or there are two-prong types G170 or G170A of you prefer. T-G-S have also been quick to get back to me when I've asked their advice on tools (but I have but a dozen or more tools from them!!).

Hopefully the above link works, I bought one of these for removing the small S6GP Pins. Worked a treat.
