You'll need to get a piece of cardboard or similar and wrap it around the line, then push it into the flare joint - this should 'unlock' it. You made need to push the cardboard and pull the rail at the same time to seperate... It's kinda hard to explain.

YEP!! I use a coke bottle cut 100mm off top of bottle and cut down one side so it fits over fuel line.. Then push bottle top into connectors and pull apart at the same time....

Put out by a company called Specialty.
