fuel filter 850 1995

Trying to do some maintenance on 94 850 T and have problem disconnecting fuel lines from the filter on both sides of the filter. What type of locking system is there?
Also what is the best way to gain access to sway bar bushings. There is not much space for the wrench to undo two bolts holding brocket to sub-frame.

Thanks, Joe

Here's a pic below of a tool that I made myself to remove the fuel filter, the Bay 13 instructions are great but it's better prying out the connectors with this tool in instead of pulling them out with your hands. It's a LOT easier and totally safe because if you damage the connectors, you'll have to replace the whole fuel line... i,e: mucho $$$
notch is approx 8.5mm X 11 mm and plate tickness is 3mm

Thanks Jack, I am a toolmaker so material, cutters or machines to make this handy tool is not an issue.

Very nice tool indeed. In the worst case you can use a flat
wrench, for example, a bicycle wrench of an appropriate size.

As to the bushings, one of them can be comfortably reached
from above with several ratchet extentions, and the other
one from below (I don't remember which).
