The fitment of the line nuts to the threads of the filter is the worst engineered part of the car. I used a Lex. filter and it was still very tough. Line wrench and vice grips.

yeah when i did mine. that **** was hard has hell to get off!! i mean my arms were burning from all the gas leaking down my arms. be sure to tie some rags around your wrists so it doesnt go down your armpit and burn that **** out of u. i had to use vise grips and a wrench. every single turn felt like i was stripping it on there. but i wasnt. worst fuel filter of my life!
