Loosen the clamps and grab the hose just below where it goes over the water pump pipe and clinch down and twist hard. If you can't get it with your hand. Grab the hose witha set of channel locks and twist. There is no science to this. The hoses will either come off or you will destroy them in the process but, if that happens chances are they're rotten inside and you need new hoses anyway.
