Can't get quick disconnect in slave cy!!!

[z28tito]

I've changed my clutch twice with no issues until now. After all the hard stuff is done and over for some reason I can't get the freaking line back in the slave cylinder. Never had this poblem before but seem like the white coulpling will only go in so far preventing the line from connecting. To make matters worse I slighty damaged the top edge of the white coupling trying to push it back in with the screwdrivers. Anyone have this problem in the past?? Can you get a replacement coupling without having to buy an entire master cylinder?? Seems like one of the easist parts of the jobs but right now it's killing me !!!

I've heard of this, I think there is hydraulic pressure buildup in the slave thats fighting against you. open the bleeder on the slave, then try to connect it.
