So I got in to my electrical stuff bag and pulled out a small plastic wire tie strap measuring 4" long x 1/8" wide. After tightening it, it squeezed both tabs great and the line came right off.

This after about two hours trying to get it disconnected with my fingers and assorted tools.

I hear this one more and more....this is a really good tip and it will be added to our manual one day down the road........
