we just had this happen last weekend.

we just put the hose back together and it came out. it took a few times, but just rethread it and then unthread it. if not, you might up ---- creek without a paddle.

another bad thing to do....

don't pull the fuel pump relay or the coil wire, it may take awhile if the plug wires are hanging down the block a ways but believe me there will be fire.

Note to self, drink coffee before advising friend how to do compression test.
