Default Quick disconnect

I am pulling my intake off for cam change on friday and i was pulling the lines off. the front one refuses to budge and the back one popped off with no problems. i worked around it for the time being, but now all i have left to do is pull the front fuel line off. any suggestions for getting it off. the last thing i want to do is replace a broken fuel line and God only knows what else.

Both fuel lines come off the same way, but are different sizes. Are you using the correct tools (5/16" and 3/8")?

probably already knew this but i just thought id tell you just in case

as you try to push the tool in, push on the line as you wer trying to connect it, then push the tool in the rest of the way and it should come off
