I know at least one other person on the list is doing or getting ready to do this job.
On Ben's site he shows the short hose cut off flush with the end of the nipple and
then using an Exacto knife to cut the hose from the inside. Another person suggested
using side cutters to cut down through the ring clamp holding the hose to the
injector. I don't have an Exacto knife and a utility knife just wasn't doing the job.
Trying to cut that ring with side cutters wasn't working very well either. My solution
was use of a Dremel tool with the thin cut-off blade. I VERY CAREFULLY cut diagonally
down through the ring as far as I could. Then I could pry it up out of the way. Then
used a new single-edge razor blade to cut down from the top, also diagonally and
carefully, so as not to nick the nipple where the hose attaches. I also did not cut
off the end of the hose. This gave me something to grab with pliers and twist and pull
the hose off.
I didn't cut into anything vital except the top of my thumb.
