[DML] Removing old fuel hoses?

["gzapf" <x86Daddy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My fuel hoses going from the fuel pump and boot to the metal lines are
in bad shape, and I'm ready to replace them.  However, the fittings
are extremely tight (no hose clamps in original setup).  What is the
recommended method to detach the old, disintegrating hoses so I can
put on the new ones?  Is it simply a matter of pulling and twisting?

At the banjo fitting at the top of the pump, the banjo is simply
plugged into the hose.  I'm guessing sufficient twisting and turning
will finally disconnect this.  However, each of the other connections
involves a couple of hex, wrenchable fittings, but I want to exercise
caution with where these connect to the metal lines.  And it still
appears that the hose ends at the first nut, so I still have to
disconnect it.

I apologize in advance for the extremely basic question.  :-)
