... BTDT!  Yes, it can take a bit of force to pull the lines out of the
radiator.  I too found my self calling in larger and larger implements to
get the lines out of #344's rad.  One thing that I think helped a little was
wiggling the lines back and forth a little to rotate the tip while prying
backwards ...

Remember to replace the o-ring seals when you reinstall!
