    I have searched and cannot find the answer to my exact question. I have the intake in, but have yet to complete step 12. Where it states to use the provided 5/32" hose to connect from the cai tube to the fuel regulator. How to I get the old hose off the fuel regulator? In the pic I have the hose I am talking about circled in red and what I believe to be the fuel regulator circled in green. Thanks for the help.

    Well, you could, but as you pull from the hose side it stretches and tightens around the fitting like a chinese finger trap, Instead, push the hose towards the fitting a little bit to baloon the end, then use your other fingers to push the slightly balooned hose off the fitting. I did this myself with little to no problem

    Good Luck!!

    That worked perfect. I was pulling and pulling, then I thought to myself that maybe this one is different so I wanted to check here before I brokes something. Thanks.
