HELP====Fuel Filter Doesn't come off!!!
 
I bought a fuel filter form Honda few days a go! I bought my car from my uncle and it's still running the it's original fuel filter! And yes it's a 10 year old fuel filter with 170000 clicks!
So I tried to install the new one but the screws are really rusted. I couldn't get it out I tried the DW-400 (I think) and I even left it on over night but didn't help. Then I went to richmoundhill Honda and they said I’ll have to pay $40 to take it off!

Does anyone know another way to get that thing off??

please any idias????:wounded: :wounded: :wounded:

are you removing it correctly?

disconnect the fuel line
then unscrew the banjo bolt?

also, did you relieve the fuel system of pressure?

Oh that thing!

I was wondering what it did...
lol

It'll come off... just keep at it. WD40 and good tools are your only hope.

Use 6-point socket, to avoid slip or damaged hex nut.
don't use 12-point/open-ened wrench. Using penetrating fluid (Movvv-it/WD-40) should help.

Need heat up fuel lines!!!
