fuel quick release fittings

Having trouble depressing the tabs to release these from tank. I know they can break but wondered if anyone had tried a pair of angled pliers to do the job. Big hands, little space!

If you are breaking the fuel lines then I suspect you are removing the tank, so I think I would remove the rear tank mount and put a block of wood under it to give you room to get your fingers in. If the line breaks are plastic then I would try to avoid using pliers as the connrctors are not terribly robust
