I am trying to get the pipe clip, original I expect, off the large hose on the expansion tank, my tool doesnt seem to make any movement.The small clips move OK. What am I missing?

Vice grips?

Once the clip is loose, move it off the spigot and twist the hose to free it from the spigot ;)

Use two small mole grips to pull the clamp apart.
Install it firmly in the bin.
Replace with a proper clamp.
