Hi guys need a quick answer please.

Just trying to replace the radiator, but all the large black coolant hoses are being a bitch to get off. Are they put on using heat? Should I get a heat gun? Or just pull really hard? I dont want to break anything and need to put them back on the new rad.

Thanks in advance

twist and pull

the hose is probably just old and has broken down/bonded slightly with the radiator
