Product review (5 stars): A Must Have for Replacing the LG Washer Pump - Makes Life Easy
A must have for removing the spring clip on the outer gasket.  So much more simple than trying to use vise grips and a screw driver which will likely scratch your washer and damage the spring.  This LG washer has done thousands of loads of laundry and is an amazing machine.  To finally have a pump wear out, after 10 years of hard use, amazing.  I'm an LG appliance fan for life if they keep making them like this.
