  Subject: fuel injector hoses


     Ok how do I remove the hoses from my fuel injectors, all four injectors are new as of a few years ago, but I want to replace the short hose from the injector to the fuel rail.  The short hoses appear to be crimped onto the fuel injecors.  There is no adjustable clamp like is found on every other junction in the fuel system, just the little gold ring that the fuel hose terminates under.  Do I just need to pull much harder on the hose, or does this gold ring need to be cut off and replaced with a clamp.
  David
