Hey guys, I'm in the process of replacing a freeze plug and just got torremoving the fuel rail. I've searched and came up with the same results, using the quick disconnect tool but there seems to be a cover on top of it.Would I just be popped off or what?Trying not to break anything. Thanks

It just pops off. Rock the hose side of the clip up until it clears the line and the rail side will slide out.

Big-A screwdriver may help. Just be careful.
