All, I'm trying to install a new airbox and have a question about removing this tube from the intake. I don't want to "force it" so I thought I'd pick everyone's brain and see if I could get an answer.

 

If I remember correctly, twist the tube, anti clockwise, and it will come off.

 

Yeah, I just wasn't giving it enough effort. I'm always afraid of breaking something by forcing it. I went back out there and just gave it a little more elbow grease. Thanks for responding.

 

glad this was here, although I don't have mine off yet.... I love my instructions which say to squeeze it......without identifying what "it" is! Assumed it was the tube itself but like above can't get the thing off...so I too will go back and squeeze harder and add some twist to it!
