Okay..but I cannot remove the fuel line from the filter..how do I do that?
I've pushed and pulled and twisted, but it won't come. That's the problem.
Thanks.

Does "okay" mean you bought the tool? Cause if you did, you just shove it
into the joint and it'll release. They work great.

Not always. If you have limited clearance to get at the joint then
it can be a bitch to get these disconnected even using the cheap plastic
tool.

No..I didn't buy a tool yet. Going to have to, I guess..but not sure what to
buy. Looked at some on some sites. Some look sorta like a crowbar, and saw
something that looked like a little plastic collar of sorts. Which is the
one to get?
Thanks for the help guys.

the plastic collar but it should come in a set of multiple sizes.
