Question Removing feed pipe from fuel rail

On page 4A.7 illustration 8.13 is shown the connection of the fuel feed to the fuel rail. The instruction is "disconnect by pushing back the coupling sleeves".
Great idea! However I tried for over an hour today to push them back and totally failed!
No doubt there must be a special tool that makes the job real easy. Can someone please tell me where I can buy such a tool?
Thanks.

No need to buy a tool.....

Just get a jubilee clip and cut enough of a length of it to wrap round the pipe diameter, then just push it into the recess to release the four tangs.

Patent pending.
