(No clue what vehicle you are asking about )

There are several types, If you have space behind the connection you can pick up a 3/4" or 5/8" disconnect tool easily at an auto parts store, (usually called fuel line quick disconnect tools) If there is less than 1/2 inch of room behind the clip (its against the firewall)you will have to find one that fits your vehicle. Look on the web for "Heater Hose Quick Disconnect tool".

i.e Heater hose Disconnect tool for Ford

There will be one of two types the easiest looks like a ring goes over the metal part of the fitting (behind it) and you push it into the fitting it spreads the clips out and the hose pulls off (sometimes you need to push in then pull out)

the other is for tight fitting areas (1987 to current Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, and Plymouth Voyager, 1986 to current Ford Aerostar vans and 1990 & later Econoline vans)

To use it push the tool over the clips over the tabs that stick out of the fitting push in pull out .. they come off pretty easily if you can get to them.

The Chrysler / Ford can be obtained through Amazon ASIN:B000H6W3VG

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.
