I'm unable to remove Purge Flow Sensor...help
I can twist and pull to my heart's content, but I can't get the manifold hose off of the Purge Flow Sensor.
(The purge flow sensor is the device connected to the canister purge solenoid valve).
I want to replace it with a new one to fix p1443, but no matter what I do it's stuck to that hose.
It looks like some plastic sleeve is inside the hose, and I can pull enough to slightly expose that sleeve, but that's as far as it goes. Is there some trick to this?
Not sure if this is the right forum...
EDIT: here's an image of that section, I'm trying to remove the right-most (manifold) hose from the sensor it's connected to: https://images10.newegg.com/productimage/A9Y4_1_20160302650288057.jpg?ex=2
