Default info on fuel filter replacement

here is some info on changing your fuel filter. i saw a thread posted on here with very detailed instructions. it mentioned taking a screw driver and sliding it under the green tab on the plastic disconnect and turning it to pop it out. well i know i am heavy handed but both green clips broke on the first turn. i had to go old school and cut off the plastic disconnects and replace with fuel line and clamps. i am sure ford makes some nice gadget to take them off. so a warning to all. go buy the proper tool or have some fuel line and clamps handy. you will need them.

thanks, that's good to know

i know some of these "quick" disconnects,
are not always that quick, or easy
