its hard t explain, your fuel lines click in and expand. to disconnect the lines you have to get a special plastic tool it pushes in the line end and clamps down on the line going into your fuel rail then just pops off. search google shopping for "fuel line disconnect tool" there not much $.

Its probably worth the time just to buy the tool. They're not much, and chances are you will need it later in life.
