Guest Guests Posted 26/10/06 02:46 PM Share Posted 26/10/06 02:46 PM I just finished doing mine and I didnt have any trouble pulling the hose off. I just took the battery out, undid the bracket holding the solenoid to the battery box (so I could get a better grip on it), then twisted the hose off.It was a bit of a muck around but I think its definitely worth it if your car is feeling a little sluggish(like mine WAS). It made the car feel alot more responsive after about five minutes of driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
