Default How to release a connection question

How does this connection release? I haven't been able to find any decent info on how to disconnect this. I don't want to risk breaking it by pulling it too hard.

It's on the passenger side on top of the valve cover.

Thanks in advance for all the help

Pinch the two side bars. This will distort the ring so that the holding tabs let go. You will have to pull it, jiggle it, turn it and pull it some more but it will come off.

Wait until you get to the electrical connetors!

Thanks for the help Bob. Been sitting on this since yesterday because of this stupid connection.

As long as they're the electrical connections I've been pulling off so far, I can figure those out ok. Time will tell.

Cheers
