Dissconect fuel line hoses?
How do I disconnect these? I don't want to break them. It doesn't look like a quick disconnect tool?

Most parts stores have the disconnect tool. It fits around the line then slides up inside the connection then the line just slides off

Looks like you just squeeze the tabs in on both sides, like on some fuel filter connections. No special tool required.

I think you should get rid of all the leaves before you take the fuel lines off.

You are right. I didn't even look at the pic. I was thinking of the fuel line at the rail.
