Default Air Cleaner Outlet Pipe Clamp Removal
How do you remove the factory air cleaner outlet pipe clamps? Are they reusable or do you replace them with screw type hose clamps?

You know, I never really paid much attention to it, but I would guess that it's re-usable with a lever-type release on the clamp.

I guess I'll have to get stronger glasses because I don't see how to release the clamps. There doesn't seem to be a lever to release.

you put a small flat screw driver under the part the has the ridges on top and pop it apart. Then clamp back by hand so the clamps stay together by themselves and snap the rest of the way with pliers

That was great question Razkid. Never even looked at it before and it's not that obvious.
Thanks for taking the time to explain it Brutal.
