You probably already took care of this, but for future reference. I had this exact problem. Me/Dad/Friends all pulled on the one the line but it would not come off even with the 3/8 quick disconnect tool in the first post picture. So eventually I went out and got an OEM brand 3/8 transmission line disconnect tool. It was twice the price but well worth it, because using it popped the line off within 5 seconds of trying. It's aluminum w/ a spring loaded handle on it. Hope it helps |

Yeah the one on the right is the one I got, but it was like 5 of them all different size fittings. Mine was 20.00 from autozone for the 5 pack I think the brand was called OEM. Wasn't the gold one super easy for this like I said? When mine came off in like 5 seconds I was just in shock. Thinking about the hours I wasted trying with the other tool.  |

I had some trouble pulling the line out too with just the quick disconnect tool. We put a couple of layers of duct tape on the connector and it helped pop the line out right away.

i don't think it is a real good idea to run your car until it dies. maybe turn it over real quick to de-pressurize but not till it dies. running a Fuel injected car out of fuel is not good for the pump nor the injectors your fuel system could and most likely will get air bound. This at least what i learned from working on Diesels and running my 93 s10 out of gas.
