I bought a fuel filter removing tool from Repco. Cost about $6.50 from memory. It does 2 sized fuel lines. You push the fuel hose away from the filter and it comes off easily (for me). If you have a lot of rust, it may not eb as easy for you. From memory, the tool was for a Ford Falcon.

Further to my post above, you are welcome to borrow the tool if you can get down to Cooma to pick it up. Alternatively, we are going thru Canberra tomorrow & then returning later in the day. If you want to arrange to meet, I can bring it with me. PM me if you want more.

You can not cut a high pressure line and "fix a bit"

Post up a pic and will advise

You either push the clips in then push it forward then back OR push it forward then push the two clips in then pull it back.
