ok so....

i bought an injen cai for mates bday. did everything myself with a help from a mate.
first time.

everything went so well until.... i snapped a plastic connecter. i didnt take photos but i took photos from a diy.
in this picture, i circled the piece i tried to pull out so hard it didnt wanna come out then when it came out, the other end snapped. the piece looks like a knob.

Spray some lubricant between the hose and the fitting to loosen it up. Remove the fitting out of the hose by prying at it using a thin screwdriver.

Once it's out - glue it back on.
