Removing fuel tank. Quick question.

[91mk3]

I'm trying to install my Walbro but I can't seem to get this fuel line apart.

Just in case I'm having a moment and doing it wrong, can someone tell me how to separate this line? I have been using a wrench to brace the smaller part (bottom part in the picture) and another wrench to turn the larger part. I soaked it with PB Blaster and let it sit for a week and it won't budge... Any tips are appreciated.

I used two vise grips. It was a bit pita.

Get two line wrenches, and give her hell. It should let go.

I couldent take mine off, and it started to break the fuel line. Used a pipe cutter and used high pressure fuel hose. But...i tried to take it apart and its not hard, (if line wrenches were longer to give leverage)

If you are having a hard time there, you can crack the rubber line off the fuel filter. That always works too.

Do this. Chances are you will kink that hardline trying to undo that fitting.

Too late. Wrench slipped and the line is fucked. That's why I posted... It seems this thing has even defeated PB Blaster.
