Buddy!! You have maybe just made my life abundantly easier!! My heater hose is stuck in the smallest irritating place behind the engine, my fingers are cramping as we speak for trying to manipulate different weird positions.
I freakin love you bruh 😂 I'm fightin the one back on the firewall. Was even gonna go buy a tool to make this easier. Gonna give the zip tie a try. Thanks man
@HuntsWorkshop thanks I just installed the new hoses...learned a few new words.... I've already filled the overflow is it too late to do this? Thanks for the response!
I can’t get the zip ties onto the tabs because I only have one hand to do it with up against the firewall. I can’t get both of my hands back there to do it. Any other ideas? I’ve got three zip ties stuck on the aluminum line now.
Good trick, but forward your piece of garbage I've had these things go on me three times now. There's got to be a better way of just putting a hose on it and clamping it
Google "service wrench." It's a thing. I've never heard these called an adjustable service wrench but it kinda makes sense. Maybe he's Canadian or something?
Thanks for the tip! I just used the zip-tie trick on the firewall connection on my 2012 Expedition and it worked like a charm.
The zip tie trick worked like a champ. Thanks for the tip>
Glad that helped!

Thank you! Zip tie trick worked on the heater hose connector 03 Escalade
The zip-for the win!!!
Couldn't get any easier.....unless the quick connects were to actually work right...lol
I wish I would have seen this a few months ago. Those are in fact a handfull
I personally like to use spark plug pliers if I have the space for it
Great tips!
Good looking out
Thanks! this is a good tip.
Thank you!! So simple and effective!
About to try this tomorrow
My hero!
Great tip!!
Brilliant. Thank you
Thank you best tip ever worked great
Ur the man .ima try it out
Had do use a lil bit of grease along with the zip tie...it worked tho😅
Good tip !!!
90* needle nose pliers if U can't get in there
Perfect.❤
My favorite way is 2 SharkBite 1/2-in PEX Crimp Brass Coupling never spend mor money or work hard
Your a god
Your right it never happens 😂
Im deleting all that quick disconnect, nothing works better then the old school hose clamp.
Better tip, use disconnect pliers. Right tool for the job.
Another little trick that works on those types of clips is to use fuel line disconnect plies
❤❤
Not all heros wear capes! Did you have to bleed the coolant system after replacement?
Yep, I use the cheap OEM Tools no spill funnel from autozone or Amazon, work’s amazing for bleeding and no spills.

A service wrench?
Spray brake parts cleaner in it and it will free up to remove it.

*Eso es Todo / That's What i'm Talking 'Bout*
No, because I never buy GM or Ford I buy Toyota. Toyota doesn’t have problems like that.
It’s hard to argue with the TPS. It produces quality.
but knowing this you can be The Man when you forward it to someone who has GM Ford just give credit where credit is due
Good trick, but forward your piece of garbage I've had these things go on me three times now. There's got to be a better way of just putting a hose on it and clamping it
You can do exactly that
I hate those clips. Thanks for the tip. Ill try next time I need to unhook a hose
Does the truck have to be turned off to change these hose?
Since you’d have the cooling system drained before disconnecting a heater hose, the truck would already be turned off and cool enough to drain, yes.
It’s a crescent wrench or adjustable wrench. WTF is a service wrench 🔧?
Google "service wrench." It's a thing. I've never heard these called an adjustable service wrench but it kinda makes sense. Maybe he's Canadian or something?
What! No way!
My tip don’t buy GM or Ford. Buy Toyota or Honda.
Not so quick huh?
Why not just use some players? They get the job done easier, quicker and less fuss.
