Locking connector
I'm having trouble with these connections with the white locking tabs. Is there a trick to getting them off. I feel stupid but I'm afraid of breaking the nipple off.

IIRC you just squeeze the white and pull off the line.

Yup, just push down the white tab and pull the connector off.

If need be spray a little WD40 on it. Some times they get dirt inside and hard to squeeze. Or just squeeze it hard and wiggle it off gently.

Yep, just a wee bit of WD-40 and squeeze and pull and twist gently, should just slide right off.

It also sometimes helps, to push IN on the whole connector before depressing the white tab, then pulling it off. The white locking tab can sometimes get wedged up against the shoulder it clips over, making it hard to push down and release.

don't push the white part too deep as it can hang on the other side of the lip.
