Just replaced the fuel line from the gas tank to the square fuel fileter with goodyear 5/16 30r9 fuel line; from the square filter to the fuel pump I purchase 2 ft of 12MM fuel line from IAP (no rating)now, from the fuel pump to the plastic hose is a 5/16, the only problem, it seems to me that, the hose is original to the van and the end attached to other end of the pump has a crimped clamp, how do you remove that crimped clamp without disturbing or braking the fuel plactic line? thanks for any help.

I used side cutters and patience. Cut the crimped part very carefully.
