Fuel line at regulator

Good morning.

Procedure below. The tool you can get at a parts store for releasing the line.

I cannot see the procedure. I see the picture of it. Does the fuel line fitting release that you use on a 2000 Ford also work on these. Do you have a picture of that?

Sorry. The tool for the newer ones works as well. There are a couple of different sizes for Ford.

I have the set of plastic removers. The whole set is about $10.00.
