I looked at an old one in my stuff. The plastic line is totally gone, and shows that the Banjo fitting on the pump has a barb nearly 1" long.

I put the pump in a vise (alum. jaw pads) with the barb pointing down and the jaws just snug. Ths "cap" holding the Banjo to the check valve popped loose easily with a 19mm box end.

It didn't seem to strain or hurt the barb any, so I think you could do the same. Of course you have to get it clean out of the car. But if you put the hose vertical in the vise, with the pump horizontal, the cap shold come loose like mine did.

The whole end of the pump looked pretty solid, so I then snugged it in the big vise and took the check valve out easily with a 17mm deep socket.

Probably could have done the Banjo cap the same way.

Hope this is in time to help,
