I just replaced the heater core on my 2001 Chevy Silverado. What a _itch. You could not pay me enough if I were a mechanic to ever do it again. To answer you because I had cut the hose from my core to remove it. You need a special tool from your parts store that slides in the top of the fitting and opens it up on the inside to slide off. If you are replacing the hoses which I did they are usually 5/8in. but I could not get it to fit into the fitting on the block so I went with a 3/4in and bought a bushing to fit inside the hose and go back down to a 5/8in for the motor side. I'll never buy another Cheverolet because of the difficulty in replacing their heater core. They are the worst. Eddie Peterson

Yes, there is a tool for that. But, I just carefully cut mine off with a drimel tool. Just be careful not to tug or bend on it too much... don't want to break the metal nipple from the heater core!

How do remove plastic heater hose connection at firewall?
It take a special tool to release the hose connector. I went to O'Rielly and they show me the Dorman Quick Disconnect replacement part ($6.29) and the Disconnect tool set ($19.99). It took the 3/4" disconnect tool to release the broken hose connector on my GMC truck. Snap on the 3/4" disconnect tool onto the heater core tube, then slide the tool into hose connector to release the dog ears inside the connector. Then pull the connector off. It took me about 30 second to remove the disconnect once I had the connect tools.
