Fuel line connector

[hookliftpete]

Sorry for my ignorance, but how do I remove the low pressure fuel line connectors? It’s plastic, has two little tabs to depress, seems easy enough, cant get it to pop off. Thanks!

Push on flat spot tabs will widens ta same time pull tube out of fitting.

I see the tabs, but pushing on them and trying to pry with a flathead screwdriver gives no result. I can’t afford to break these lines, have to be back on the road 5am Tuesday.

that might require tools like these https://amzn.to/2F9nvlp
or possibly it looks like theres a slide in point by the tab to slide something inside under the tab.

possibly 2 small flatheads stuck into those slide in points and it will come out.

Going to try again after supper, put some penetrating oil on it, might end up cutting them off...Cummins NE warehouse is not too far away, they have them.

Cummins tool part number 4918878 for fuel line disconnect. Or Google Cummins fuel line disconnect tool there are several different designs available. Cummins seems to stock a lot of these small tools in their parts centers. So they are usually very easy to get wherever you get your Cummins parts. Or the Internet

Get the right tools for the job, you start hacking into things and the bill winds up being more than the tool would have cost you, along with your time.

That tool is around $20 on the internet.
