Question need help asap

I am going to replace my fuel injectors roday but it says I have to have a fuel line release tool set J-37088-A or an equivalent tool to disengage the quick-connect fittings. I was wondering where to get this stuff or if anyone used a different tool that I might have. I need answers asap. Thanks.

I'm not saying you would do this, but just as a tip, be sure to put the fuel injector clips back on with the injectors. They can be a PITA to put back in. I had a friend that thought it would be ok to leave them off and one backed out on him while driving and he almost blew his motor. Just felt I should share this with you.

"GM a/c and fuel line disconnect kit" -- about $10 at any auto parts store. Check in the tools section.


Be sure to bleed off the fuel pressure (via the schrader valve on the rear passenger side of the fuel rail, and unscrew the gas cap) before you remove the actual fuel lines. And, get a bucket/towels ready -- some fuel will still pour out after they are disconnected.
