That looks like a pinch tab connector.......



Squeeze the two tabs together and the metal end should pop off. The plastic tab should remain on the line and not come off with the metal end....so keep pinching the plastic together while removing the metal end .

That doesn't look like US market fittings. Where is this connector? Can you pan out in the pic? I removed all the fuel connections when I did the valve lash inspection at 60k miles, and there were none with a threaded fitting.
