this is what the connection looks like. Squeeze in on curved metal wire which will release securing metal wire on sides, pull/wiggle out connection.

That's the one. Its a two part hose, one is hard plastic, the other a rubber hose. Pinch off the rubber hose and if your problems go away, then change out hard plastic hose.
