NEED HELP QUICK: brake booster hose/sea foam Hey...i have been trying to get my brake booster hose off for about 15 minutes, and i cannot get the damn thing off. Anyone have any suggestions?

just keep pulling try twisting on it but...dont grab right where the hose goes over the piece cuz then your applying pressure to the hose keeping it on the piece squeeze a lil off of were it adapts and jus keep at it once you get it going it will come off.

you can pull that little piece that goes into the brake booster out. just pull it straight out and then it is easier to pull the hose off. plug the piece back in and your set.
