When disconnecting the spring-coupler connectors on my fuel lines, I put several drops of light machine oil in each one to help loosen up the fittings so they slide apart much easier. After they're separated, I spray them with PB blaster or the like to clean the excess oil off and to help "blow off" whatever residue remains. I also do this again when I reconnect them. Last few times I've disconnected my fuel lines, they've came apart very easily. Anyone who has ever taken them apart for the first time knows what a bitch they can be..
