The lines suck, make sure your using the right size. Push in the line, push the tool into the connector and slide both back at the same time. You really just have to keep screwing with it till it works or breaks.....

there is spring lock you also have to push the line toward the tool .. and it should come off when u pull it back again if not .. try to push it harder from both sides
