    The fuel pump in my 02 GTP is going so I bought a new one. So i was wondering the best way to get the vacuum lines off the old fuel pump and on to the new one?

    Thank you

    Taking a look at it. You'll see that two should have a white clip inside them. Push the line toward the pump and squeeze the white clip then pull the line off. Should come easily. The other is an oval and simply needs to be squeezed into a circle and it'll pull off.

    The only tough part with these clips is the limited room. Once you get past the room issue..they are easy.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Sorry for bringing this from the dead but what is the middle line with the plastic O ring you have to squeeze? I recently changed my fuel pump and now have the code P 0440 coming up. Idk if I got that line on right or all the way, trying to figure out if that's my problem. Thanks.
