Trying to separate the PTFE tube from the coupler on the outside top of she printer. Seems to be wedged in solid. Any tips on how to remove without damaging the tube or the coupler?

Are we assuming that you DID push the ends of the coupler in to release the tubing? If you did then it might be buggered, these do jam tight. Maybe some lub.

Thanks. I ordered a new coupling and will try to get a bit more aggressive with it when it arrives.
