Default How do you disconnect the line from the rail?

How do you undo the quick disconnect from the line to the rail? I can't find it anywhere. There's also a quick disconnect on the front drivers side of the intake going to some part of the fuel system. How do you disconnect this one also?

You use a quick disconnect tool. Parts store should have it. Little plastic tool that slids into the connector.

Am I doing this right? Nothing is happening. I'm sliding the blue tool to the right and pulling the right side of the line off, correct?

Push the line to the left. After the tool is inserted and then pull right.

Ok so I'm pushing the right side of the line to the left, inserting the tool, then pulling the line to the right? That's not working

Do I just pull the line to the right or push the line to the right using the tool?

Usually I insert the tool, push the two sides together, make sure the tool is all the way in, then pull the two lines apart.
