    How does one release these hose clamps without using cutting tools?

    To get the radiator off for a valve adjust these hose clamps must come off. New-to-me. Special tool? Trick?

    You can get a small flat blade screwdriver under the leading edge and pry upward. It will come undone. Then go get some regular style hose clamps to replace those squeeze-fit ones with.

    note: you should replace the hose as well it is known to perish and leak
