Default How to remove this pipe connection


I used my smoke machine and found a small leak where this connected is how easy is it to remove? I know how to release the tube itself just not the connector

Off topic but did you make the smoke machine or buy one? I'm looking at getting one to check for hose leaks too.

I have a snap on Evap machine , I’ve seen the diy ones if I didn’t have a snap on I’d make my own, didnt have any luck using a cigar I couldn’t get enough smoke or pressure to see where the smoke was coming from

I have one of these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/EVAP-Smoke-...ke+tester.TRS0

Haven't used it yet, but it looks like a good cheap tool. Real smoke testers are $$$
