Question Those with a Vortech V-9 G-trim

I have a 2000 Trans Am, I am trying to figure out how to remove the fuel adaptor (Vortech part number 7P375-072) that Vortech used ( on the side coming in from the tank ).

I am not able to find where to squeeze the two small tabs that are part of the filter so I can slide it out.

How has anyone with this system found a way to find the to be able to squeeze the two small plastic locks and squeeze them with this adaptor Vortech used?

Lisle makes a 3 piece tool. I got one from O'Reilly's.

I have never heard of it. You mean there is a special tool that has to be used to pull the two plastic pieces out of this adaptor ? (do you have a pic of it ) ?

Yeah they are just peices of plasic that release the spring loaded clips keeping it held together etc... They are like 10 for the whole set that have just about every size you could ever imagine. You slide it into the bigger fitting and wiggle and boom your done and just snap it back together when done. Good luck.

I will take a ride to the auto parts store and see what they have available.

Thank you all.
