Angry Help! Fuel line disconnect/tool

Hi everyone,

I was hoping you guys could help me with this. How exactly do I use this thing to disconnect my fuel line? I must have a mental block or something.

Pop the squareish clip off the fuel line first, then wiggle it out of the fitting and pop it off of the fuel rail. You can use normal needle nose pliers or a screwdriver for that. Then compress the quick connect tool around the fuel rail side and slide it towards the fuel line. It will end up in that fitting. Pry it apart and it will release the springs
