    Puma Fuel Cooler

    The manual requires the hoses to be removed from the fuel cooler to drain coolant.
    They are different to the normal squeeze in fittings.
    More like a plastic "C" clip.
    Anybody have any tips for removing before I break the fittings.

    Just pinch the blue bits with pliers, it should come off easily.

    Thanks but not the same type of fitting the ones on the fuel system are that type.
    The one I need to remove is on the fuel cooler and is like a c clip that you can see 1/3 of on the top then is internal with 2 holes at the bottom where yo can see the ends of the clip inside.

    Just press the blue bit in with your thumb and it comes right off, just wriggle the fitting gently.

    Make sure you're removing the right 2 connections. It's easy with a pair of pliers. Did it a couple weeks ago. Helps to clean it all up first with some brake cleaner.
