I need to get my fuel rail out in my v6 ecotec and I’m having trouble disconnecting the fuel return line from the fuel rail (not the end that goes into the metal lines) there isn’t a clamp or anything and I pull it but it won’t budge just wondering if anyone else has come across this ?

Probably needs a special tool like this set. I’m not specifically saying that set will do the job but fuel lines on most cars have needed special tools to remove them for a long time now. If there isn’t an obvious way to remove it then it needs one of these types of tools.

Yep. Special tool required. You’ll get it at any parts shop. They are cheap.
