CFI flare nut help
 

I have an 83 T/A with CFI and I am trying to install the fuel pressure assembly with the pressure gauge from DCS, but I cant seem to get the old fuel line off. The flare nut at the rear throttle body didnt give me any trouble, but the one at the front throttle body doesnt want to come loose. I was wondering if its reversed threaded or is there a trick to it? :huh:

I tried a little bit, but I stopped because the nut was already rounded and I didnt want to round it anymore.
Help please :/

normal thread. if the nut is rounded, vice grips are your best bet

they have special crows feet type wrenches that wrap like 3/4 the way around the nut to help get it off http://compare.ebay.com/like/3305122...Types&var=sbar these are what im talking about

that's what they call a flare nut wrench, basically a box end cut to pass the pipe through.
