clutch line removal?

95 PSD 5sp, anybody know how to remove the line from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder? at the master cyl., it looks like it takes a special tool, no threaded fittings?? parts store wants 50, i think i can get it done for free with my buddy at a hydraulic shop, if i can get it off that is. or maybe even fix myself with a compression fitting, how much pressure would be on that line?? couldn't be to much.
thanks

Yes they are the same....... A spring loaded ***** punch looks like a small ***** punch except it is spring loaded, as you push the sharp end on to a hard object the punch compresses until a certain point and then it snaps and leaves a small ***** mark,,,,,,,,,,,,, firemen and EMS works sometimes use them to bust the side windows of wrecked cars to extracted trapped accident victems,,,,,,,,,,available at your local Snap-on dealer or better tool stores.........

"Window Buster Outer", "Spring Loaded Center Punch" or "***** Punch"?

wow thats alot of verb slinging going on. ***** punch sounds like something i used to do back in school to the guys you didnt like. you guys must be contorsionist to get the pin out with that window buster outer thingy. i laid under the hood trying to get the pin out with just a plain ole hammer/punch (dont have fancy equipment like you guys) until my ribs were sore. guess i will have to find a window buster outer thingy.

I can't figure out why you guys need special tools to break windows. I am all for using the right tools for the job but some on. I have broken windows with my bb gun, my .22, a trophy, a piece of wood, my fist, couple rocks, fuel pressure gauge....

Yeah my dad really hated me when I was a kid!! I broke alot of windows!

The Window Buster Outer fits in you pocket like a pen , its never in the way and always there in a split second when in need........ Kawa, now I will show my age 30 years ago I had a friend that always had this odd looking pen thing clipped to his pocket protector, so one day I asked him what is that thing and thats when I leaned about the window busting capability of the spring loaded center punch, window buster outer thing,,,,,,,,,,,,he was a big time EMSer and always prepared for a disater......... btw I never in my life ever had a pocket protecter,,,,,talk about geeky
