the problem,


the solution



start by removing the fuel cap


then, remove the four(4) screws surrounding the hose and pulling the hose down below the body


You may need to keep the screws


(NOTE, now is a good time to finish your cigarette)

then, to remove hose from tank, simply...


after that, to put the new hoses on, you pull the collar back, and push the hose onto the tank, you wil feel a clunk when it settles into place
and put the fill end back up into its hole, use a screw to hold it in place after twisting to get it straight


reinstall four(4) screws


Reinstall cap



This is why I decided to paint mine


Enjoy
