Clay,
The connector has internal finger locks on it. If you want to remove it and
not purchase a special tool, here's what I did. I simply took a piece of
cereal box cardboard, cut it, and used it like the tool. You slide the
cardboard (or any other material you choose to make a shim out of) up into
the connector from the rail side. This will disengage the locking fingers
and the connector will slide apart. Simple!

Hey all, Im getting ready to install a cam and really dont want to totally
disassemble the MPI intake if I dont have to, so HOW do you remove the
fuel line from the fuel rail?????? Im pretty sure it has some "advanced"
process cause I tried pulling really hard and it wont budge... I imagine
there is some special tool or something right?
