Stuck electrical connector
Hi everyone, I'm new here. I have a 2005 Grand Caravan, 3.3, automatic.
I'm in the process of removing all the stuff in the way of taking off the intake manifold, to replace the gasket. It's leaking coolant. I've already done a lot of other work, and finally tracked down the leak to the intake manifold gasket.
My problem today, is getting this one electrical connector loose. It's that big connector below the throttle body. I got the little red tab out, but can't get the connector loose. Can't find any pinch tabs or anything.
I'm trying to add pics, but not sure I did it right.

Thanks for the response.
It's the connector for the fuel injectors.
I have tried several times to add a pic, but I haven't figured out how. I posted a question about that in the newb section, but no replies.
If someone can tell me how to add a pic, I'll do that.

Got it loose! My Son-in-law was here for a bit, his hands are a lot stronger than mine. He got it loose, but it wasn't easy for him either. Apparently that connector is just really tight.
This is the monster, here. We got it loose, finally. It's just ridiculously tight.
