Rear Fuel Line Removal

Having trouble figuring out how to remove the rear fuel line from the fuel pump. Doesn't seem to be the type that uses the quick disconnect tool like the front line does. Any suggestions?

I am pretty sure it is the quick disconnect type like on the tank. I'll look for a decent picture and post it back here.

EDIT: I am having a hard time finding a picture of the stock setup. Most of the pictures I am seeing have a fuel injector clamp or hose clamp on them now like I have.

You should be using tools like the ones below to remove the disconnect. I suspect that it has a bunch of crud in it and needs a good cleaning as well.

That is not what mine was. I can't find a picture right now but mine was a white 'u' clip, looked like a horseshoe that slides out from the side with a screwdriver and probably breaks, all auto parts stores stock them.
Here's what they look like.

They come in white or black depending on what size the line is, mine was white.

I do think you'll find the ones that Sous shows on the tank itself.

Walleye Hunter: Yes, that's what I have. OK, was worried about breaking it but if they are easy to find I'll go ahead with the screwdriver. Thanks both of you.

I think Walleye is right now that I try to recall the process I completed during the removal of the tank.
