This is what Ullr posted to try in an earlier issue, maybe this will work for mine.
"Here is what I have done, and it has worked before. Cut the old line off just above the fitting,(removed from car with no gas!) and completely remove the metal (brass?) fitting, and cut the remaining plastic from the nipple of the fitting. Clean the fitting and hold it with a pair of pliers, or better yet put it in a vise, with the line side facing out. Apply heat to the fitting (a lighter will work, but bear in mind you are woring with the fuel system, so move away from anything leaking gas, or producing fumes), and quickly place the clean cut line over the nipple. Make sure you carefully test for leaks after re-installation. Hope this helps." THX to Ullr
