Help with carb removal for 1986 Rebel 250

I disconnected all the pipes, throttle and idle cables. I had loosen the two philips screws that are in front and rear of the carb. But, I am not able to take the carb out. From rear hose, it came out, but from the front hose it is not coming out. Please help me regarding this.

Remove the hose clamp or back them way off. Try rotating the carb. If it turns, get some Xylol (from a hardware store) and squirt it between the carb body and the intake rubber. In about an hour, it should soften up the rubber and let you twist them out. Ordinary diesel fuel will do the same thing. Neither will hurt anything.

Give it a try!
