You just squeeze the connector oblong, so it releases from the canister, here are the instructions in the images below. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.

So, I disconnect the hoses then how do I remove the canister? Can this all be done without dropping the fuel tank?
