the 90 degree check valve and whatever you cal the other one....
here is a pretty easy way to remove them and not break them. remove all of the items in the way, do the wd-40 spray, and then get a pair of the large size (normal I guess, just not the pocket ones) vise grips.
open the jaws and hold them up and down (think like a nut driver) go over the portion of the check valve and towards the pump, adjust so that the are slightly gripping the valve. you now have a way to turn 1/4 turn left and right while pulling up, this way you are not putting any strain on the 90 bend in the fitting, you are actually gripping the portion that is going into the pump, continue slight twisting back and forth as you pull straight up and it will come out, no muss no fuss.
