fuel filter
can somebody explain to me the easiest way to get off the fuel filter. The easiest set of nuts to get to, won't loosen. And i'm about to strip the nut on the gas tank side. The opposite side of the fuel filter looks impossible to get to. Anybody got any suggestions?

if i remember correctly, i used brake line style wrenches to get them off, after soaking with "liquid wrench" for most of the morning.

I absolutely agree with nynor. Use brake line wrenches. Stripping the line nut will be a pain to fix.
