Re: Replacing Air Conditioning Water Pump
Getting that hose off has proven to be a real challenge. I’ve tried using a hose pulling tool. The access is limited and difficult as you can see from the pics below.
Any techniques or tools would be appreciated!

Re: Replacing Air Conditioning Water Pump
I just need to apply a larger amount of force to slip that strainer hose off after I had broken the “seal” with a hose puller.
Thanks to each of you for your excellent advice.

Re: Replacing Air Conditioning Water Pump
once you have a gap opened up with the screwdriver, you can also pour a little soapy water in there which also might help it slip off easier.
But I guess that's for next time... just saw you got if off and the new pump installed. Congrats!! Time for a beer??
