Fuel Filter HELL
Fuel Filter HELL
omfg....
okay well my car hasn't been starting and I suspect something with the fuel....and I haven't changed my fuel filter since I bought the car so I attempted it today.
so I used almost a whole bottle of PB Blaster on the 2 sides of the old filter in hopes that it would be loosened easier. A couple of my friends came over and helped me and we got the drivers side of the filter off of the line.....but the passanger side WILL NOT BUDGE. We seriously tried for like 2 straight hours using a wrench on the actual filter bolt and vice grips on the fuel line. We managed to get the drivers side of the fuel line free so now the filter will twist but still won't come apart from the line. The fuel line attached to the filter is like stripped badly with CHUNKS taken out of it from how hard we were trying. How the hell can I get the filter off without having to replace the whole line? PB Blaster isn't working :/
Thanks for your help guys.

try to stay away from sawing it, metal on metal means sparks.
sparks and gas=not fun times
might just have to replace the fuel lines
