cluthc slave, quick disconnect i am trying to disconect the hose that goes into the trans so i can change the clutch slave, i can't find the right tool does any one know how to get it loose 
i struggled with it today as well. im installing a new oz700 and it took us awhile to get it off. mine must have been stuck, b/c it took 3 ppl to pull that thing loose. we just pushed down on that white "lock" thingie and i pulled on the hose and someone else pulled on the slave, while someone else held the white thing down. sucked!

well i spent most the day trying to get it off, but there is no plastic ring on there. i could really use ideas if any one has one or if some one could tell me about how much a new line would be and where you could get on fast cuase i need my car bad. please help if i don't get this thing soon the car might not make it 
im sure you can get the line at the dealership parts dept. if you have a new slave, look at how the fitting works on the new one, there are lil metal tabs that you have to compress inside there to be able to pull the line out. there is a lil white "locker" tab that you have to keep down in the slave end of the fitting so the tabs will stay compressed/held down to be able to pull the line out. honestly it wasnt "quick disconnect" at all for me, and i called textraila and they said to just keep working with it and sometimes its just a b*t%%!! but when you got it all setup and you have the tab down, you just have to pull like a **** on the line and the slave if its stuck. itll come off i promise. hope that helps

well it is i finally got the #$&*ing thing off, i ended up have to cut the cupler with a saw then just started to pull the little metal "finger" out of it and finnaly it came apart. I am going to try to find the plastic peice before i put it back together so i can get it apart next time. thanks for every ones help now i just have to bleed the system and i can have my car back 
cool man, guess it was a bit harder for you then it waas for me. i honestly thought about just cutting it also, and would have, but before i mentioned cutting it, my buddy said to just give it one more try and on the last one it came apart.
bleeding took me forever as well, and i still dont think mine is fully bled. ill have to get it up tomorrow and try some more. good luck man, and have fun.
