Clutch cable
 
Trying disconnect clutch cable which is by firewall , pushing hard and they are not coming off.

Is there any trick to undo them? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e1b03a1273.jpg

The tubing is disconnected by using two wrenches, same as the power steering pressure line in this picture:

a little bit of heat goes a long way ,, try hitting the outer casing with a bit of heat like propane so it will expand a little .

Will try , thanks for the idea.

Btw , the new cable is a joke , over twice more expensive for LHD then for RHD car. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...be162fab1b.jpg

Before you guys totally kill this fitting, try doing it the correct way:

OP did you get the line to seperate ?

Yep, those connectors can be separated using conventional wrenches, but if it's really stubborn and won't budge, better not force it and just get a flare nut wrench set that fits around the whole thing and gives you a better grip:
