I am able to access the IACV but not able to detach the two hoses what would suggest? I have used pare of pliers, flat screw driver. But, I do not want to break them.
Really need your suggestion. Thank you

Hello,

These hoses can be tough to remove. Use a long pick to try and break the seal of the hose if not cut the hoses and replace them with new. I sounds like they might need it anyway.

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken
