I'm trying to pull the rubber "grommet" under the tank that holds the two hardlines where they go through the firewall. It doesn't want to budge but I haven't really unloaded on it yet for fear of either ripping it or not getting it back in. Is there a trick and is it difficult to get it back in?

If I remember correctly, it was easier to push it out from inside the car than to pry it from the outside. For installing any kind of rubber grommet, hose, etc, hands-down the best thing I have found is K-Y Jelly.....snyde remarks sure to follow :-)
