fuel filter
im having a problem changin my fuel filter, i was able to get a screw drvie down there to loosen up the clamps, and slide them out but the hose was on the filter so tight i couldnt pull it off, even after i depressurized the fuel pressure, i was able to change my fuel filter which is the same principle, but there was more room, in which i was able to twist the hose off, but i can't do it on this, im pretty sure the filter was never changed and i onyl got 70k doing my 60k service, so wat do you guys recommned i do to take the hose off, i wanted to sue a plier but dotn want to rip it off, if anyhitng ill cut the hose and just go buy another one at the dealer

what i did to make it a little easier for me was take a flat head screw driver and wedge it in between the hose and filter and twist it so it slowly goes up, hope that helps

Yeah that's what I do. I also remove the intake and than it's easy to get at.
