Used the closed end (boxend as it's called) of your normal wrench to take them off as your not going to use the pieces of line anyhow.
To put the P-valve on, you can use a normal wrench but you have to be extra cafeful about not slipping and rounding off the flats of the flare nut.
If I were you I'd go to CT or a similar store and pick up some line wrenches, using the correct tools elminates a TON of headaches and aggravation.
The wrenches should be good enough for what your going to do, and should be reasonably priced.
