I have a plastic reducing elbow fitting that I need to disconnect. How do you disconnect the side holding the plastic tubing to the fitting without breaking the fitting?

Is this rigid PVC, a picture would really help here. Tell us more about the tubing and what it is connected to.

Going to have to have a pic of your setup. Or a better explanation. If you could post a clear picture of the fitting and tubing, we will most likely be able to help you out.

It is PVC, it is attached to the drain line of a reverse osmosis faucet that connects to a saddle going into the sink drain line.

Here's a link to the picture: http://www.usplastic.com/images/prod...ing/58257p.jpg

That elbow has a Sharkbite type connector, pull back on that collar and then slide the tubing out. This means you pull collar one direction while the tubing then goes in the opposite direction.

Hi all:

Here's a pic. To back up what Ballengerb1 is saying...

Good luck...
