Put a glove on a push the harness(straight down) off the two prongs. Sometimes it takes 2-3 tries. Patience...

Is it just that 1 tab on the side that has to lift up??

EDIT: I didn't realize the release tab is on the bottom of this connector...lol Man this project sucked worse then I thought it was going to.. to the point where I kinda said F it... cleaned the valves the best I could but I really think walnut shell blasting is the way to go... Anyone that is on the fence about doing this... I say don't; go get it walnut shell blasted & just pay the goddamn money
