1998 Toyota Camry Fuel Filter help
I'm trying to replace the fuel filter but i'm having problems with the lower connection of the old filter. It's rusted on really bad and if I end up twisting off and tearing the fuel line at the connection what can I do quickly to fix it?
Thanks

Hi there,
These are one of the hardest filters to change. What i do is remove the top fitting, and unbolt the bracket off the inner guard. Carefully twist the filter & pipe down enough to see the union nut. There is a fair amount of give but be carefully, then using a good quality 14mm pipe spanner and also using a spanner to hold the filter , you should be able to easily undo the fitting, bay be give it a good spray and let it sit for a bit first.
