I cannot figure out how the fuel line on the beast disconnects.

This is a 99 whiteblock and there's scant info on the Board to help me. I guess there was a nice easy connection on the left end of the fuel rail on the 98's. Not so on the 99's.

My manifold is ready to pull up, except for the fuel line connections. Help!!

It is a quick connect fitting, same as the AC uses on these cars. You can get a tool at an auto parts store such as NAPA made by Lysle or some such spelling. Mine has about 5 different sizes.

Thanks Dick,

I see now. Plus I found this video if anyone else is interested. What a pain in the ass. I suppose it's easier, but wasn't the old flared end fitting good enough.
