I have an 04 Ex XLT and we are replacing the cooling lines to the trans as we noticed a leak... the line appeared damaged at the connection to the hose that connects the line to the radiator.

There is a "special" disconnect tool that is required for these quick connect fittings... finding the one for this line is becoming impossible... and since we did not know this before we started the job we are without a vehicle until we find the tool.

We are on our 3rd set of disconnect tools and still no luck.. If someone could post a link to the correct tool so that we could get it ordered and get done with it that would be great! or if there is a way to get it off without the tool that would be even better!
 






Anyone have the part # for the tool?

I picked one up at carquest for my 2004 Ex. These will work:
Lisle 39960 Transmission Oil Cooler Line Disconnect
OTC 6593 Transmission Disconnect Set
Lisle 39660 3/8" x 1/2" Transmission Oil Cooler Line Scissor
Assenmacher Specialty Tools 8021 Oil Cooler Liner Remover Tool (NAPA house brnad looks like this too).
