The tool was easy to make out of scrap metal.
I got the o-rings from Diesel O-Rings Wednesday and received them Friday via 4-7 day regular mail.
Wow, all I can say is thank you for the very fast delivery!!!
In the instructions in the package and in this thread, it says to push the hose in and then insert tool.
There is zero play between the fitting and the hose, it did not release.
I tapped on it a little to try and jar it loose. Failed to release.
Any other methods?
Slip the tool behind the black collar without pushing on the hose. Using the disconnect tool push the collar toward the fitting and pull on the hose. Hose should pull free.
No dice....
Dang thing seems to be locked tight.
It's the front one, as depicted in the pic, limited access.
I go past a friendly rural dealer, been trying to sell me a 2011, I'll ask them about doing it.
I can't keep trying as I lose oil.
I'll wind up spending more in oil than in a little dealer labor.

Just to clarify the collar has to be pushed toward the fitting on the HPOP and the hose must be pulled straight out or it will bind and not release.
There is a vid on here showing how it works. Someone is bound to have it in their links!!
Also try a different one and see if you can get 1 of the 4 off. This will at least get you the concept!
I went to the dealer.
He changed two rings, topped off the oil and cleaned the engine.
Only charged me for 30 minutes.
I popped the hood the next morning to do a good cleaning at home.
I was amazed, it was showroom clean!!!
Very good experience at this dealer.
Prince Frederick Ford in Maryland.
Mechanics were James and Steve.
Service adviser was Johnnie.
It was well worth the fifty bucks.
I'll let them chance the other two when I have time.
I appreciate the help y'all gave me.
Hopefully I can find that video.

Great service. Reps to Prince Frederick Ford in Maryland, as well as Johnnie, James and Steve. Hope they used some Loctite 680 on the threads.
