Default Pulling 2JZGE minor problem.

First time pulling 2JZGE out, everything is removed but I cannot seem remove this line(see pic below). The line is underneath and almost next to the starter. Im assuming that is the fuel return line (correct me if I am wrong) Is there anything I can do to remove this line by just using hand tools? (Ive tried all type of breakers bar but there is no room to wiggle in that area.

Thanks in advance.

extension on your rachet, or breaker bar. get a swivel if needed as well. I can't say I've ever had any issues getting to any bolt on a 2JGE. 1UZ....whole other ballgame!

Ive never had an issues with it either. What you can try is put the rachet on and use a hammer to hit the handle of the rachet.

You can disconnect that line under the car, near the clutch line

x2 and next time you should use more precise tools, itll save you a headache. 12points and 6 point sockets and holding the ratchet straight. it happens
