Ive found that a lot of wiggling will get them off. Ive screwed up both the gas and bev line before. The worse Ive had to do is us a crescent wrench to grip it as I wiggled and pulled. Ok that last sentence sounds like something you would hear on lunch meat.

So this is more than a little late for the original post, but for others out there - I did the same thing and after about 30 min of wrestling with the f-er and a call to B3, eventually grabbed an open-ended 7/8" wrench and was able to use this as a level to pry it off. Jammed it under the connector and it took all of 3 seconds before all was well.

Danny, that is awesome. I am going to put it in my playbook and I will make a point of crediting you if I pass it along.

I never would have thought of an under-pressure gravity siphon.
