Unhappy Removal tool for fuel lines

I need to replace my octopus hoses and the 2 hoses under the inlet manifold.
After reading instructions on this form it mentions " disconnect the fuel feed line on the rear end of the left injector rail using one of the fuel/tranny line quick disconnect tools" also " disconnect the fuel return hose with another of the quick disconnect tools"


Q. What are these quick disconnect tools and where can I purchase them in USA. Is there a part number for them?


I have seen somewhere the mention of Northern Tools or Autozone??


Many thanks for your help.

They can also be found at most AutoParts stores. The inexpensive plastic ones work just fine.

Yes, I am taking the inlet manifold off and doing both the valley hoses. Hopefully by taking off the inlet manifold I will have more room to disconnect the "norma" connections which are difficult to get to. All the parts are now ordered from Gaudin Jaguar and hope to start the job next week.
