How the heck can I get the power steering return hose off the bottom of the reservoir? I need to replace it. There is pretty much no room to work in there. I was able to move the clamp down but now I can't slide the hose off. It will twist, it's not stuck. I just can't grab it to slide it off.
I can't take the reservoir off either, only one screw is accessible.

Any ideas?? Thanks!!

 

If you are replacing the hose anyway, slice it open with a knife where it goes on the nipple to the reservoir. Should then pull off easily.

 

Now there's an idea!!

It's actually leaking where the 3 hoses meet, was hoping to pull the whole thing and fix the connection and put it back, but cutting it my be my only option at this point.
