Need help with an '88 Ranger clutch [Archive]

I have an '88 Ranger I am trying to sell (2.0 M/T). The last time I drove it, which was up my driveway to wash it before advertising it, the hydro clutch started having problems (my luck). It looks like there is a leak in the line running from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder. Last night I tried to remove the line for inspection but I don't see how to get it off. Anyone have any ideas how to get it off? Also, is there a fix for a leaky line that won't require me getting a new one?

By the way, I've not posted here in a long time, but do lurk around from time to time. The BBF project I did with my '71 Mach 1 worked out great thanks in good part to everyone here---it is running great!

IIRC there is a small roll pin that retains the line. Poke it out and the line should pull out. (it's been a loooooong time since I has a 4 banger ranger though. LOL)
