    Nozzle stuck on hose

    We have a problem. I got my hose nozzle stuck on the hose. I left the hose out all winter. I did buy a Little big shot nozzle , but how do I get the old one off. I did use boiling water and have tried wd40 and a wrench, any ideas?

    muscle it up nancy. jk

    maybe try to use a plumbing wrench and a table clamp or manuever two wrenches together going in opposite directions.

    My pressure washing quick connectors needed to be replaced about every 3-4 months and those were almost impossible to get off.

    Ok this sounds strange. Get a metal tool something with some weight on the tip. Pair of wire snips wrench etc. tap the hell out of the parts that the hose connects up into the nozzle. Tap hard on the nozzle all the way around it. You will see debris fall out of it, but this should help. I left mine out as well and did this. Hit it pretty hard and you should be ok. It's usually caused by mineral build up.

    I was able to get rid of white mineral build up and it helped alot. I might just have to go back to home depot and get a good plumbing wrench
