Cut off the crimp bulge across the width of the clamp with a pair of end
cutting nippers (premier choice) or diagonal cutters (dikes).  Make sure the
cutter is designed for use with steel or else be ready to live with some
nicks in their cutting edges.  On the numerous plastic hose barbs found on
the Vanagon, do not apply any twisting force as you cut or you may end up
having to do more work than you had intended.
