I think you’re thinking of something like this - I bought one a few years ago to undo the fuel line connections on my wife’s Camaro.

For the ones that I use on our reverse osmosis system, I’ve learned to use a small screwdriver to make the disconnection, but them I have plenty of room to do so.

Ther eis one line that goes from the parking valve to over the top of the steering column to who knows where.  My leak is somewhere beyond the air valve.  It really hisses.  I have replaced nearly all the fittings last spring on this thing.  I have an alcohol tank ordered.  Those quick connect fittings are a pain in the butt...  Does anyone have any experience with these..  Maybe Steve W..???  The factory service manual is $300+, and I have tried to download 2 times today and it failed.  I will wait until tonight after midnight to download...
