I'm trying to install my FMU and am having a heck of a time getting the return line to "unclip" even using 2 different tools I have for it. I've tried gripping the line with pliers (using a cloth to protect the line) and twist it a little while pulling/using the tool. Any suggestions? It is really on there.

Some of them get stuck, as long as you are using the correct size line disconnect tool, just make sure it pops in place, and pull hard. There really is no trick to it, sometimes you need to just muscle it a little.

yeah, I'm using the 3/8" one. That's what it calls for and none of the others fit. I was puliing pretty friggin' hard on it while wiggling and twisting with the pliers. Maybe I'll go at it again tomorrow, it will probably just pop right off.
