All, Have any of you come up with a good way to get the hose back ON the PS resevoir? I previously did a fluid flush, took one out(had to slice the lines with a razor blade to get the hoses off-might have been my undoing), cleaned it out (and off), replaced the filter, and when I went to put the lines back on (for a customer) It almost killed me! I thought getting the hoses off was hard but that was nothing! I swore I was going to break it I was pushing so hard. I should have tried some soapy water or WD-40 but..... Anybody got any idea's or experience to share? I was a little hesitant about using a heat gun as I felt the reservoir would go soft before the lines and I was unsure at what temp the fluid "could" ignite. I didn't need anymore excitement regardless of the fact I have not one but two "purple-k" fire extinguishers in the shop just for that reason. Thanks, TJ 87 Wolfie
