I'm not familiar w/ the type of connections on the 95. The foxes have a little clip that goes through the end of the fitting. You pull it out, then pull the line off.

just take a screwdriver and pop them up if the little clips break = no big deal....you can buy them in the help section at your local parts store.. they are cheap

no its not like that at all, those style were holding the lines together in the engine bay.
these are strange...theres two clips with a bar holding them together so they wont come apart, then the line goes into the big round chrome lookin thing that dosent even look like a clamp. i know you guys prolly have no idea what im talkin about, i'll get pics of it tomorrow.

back at the pump it has those style?? in the engine bay for the a/c lines and fuel lines it has those but never seen that style back at the pump.. I'know what your talking about and you'll need a set of quick disconnect fuel line release tools then if it's those style
