I'm not sure if it was on this list where I saw it. But one tip I plan
to try the next time I need to change a hose is to pre-expand the end
with the tool they use for expanding automotive muffler pipes to make
them slip over adjoining pipes. They come in different diameters. You
slip it into the end of the pipe or hose and tightening a nut causes it
to expand inside the tubing. I think between that and careful
application of a heat gun, it might be just the thing. It sounds good,
anyway...
