I'm steadying the filter with a 19mm while I try to remove the banjo bolt on top, but it won't budge a single degree and I'm afraid of bending the bracket to hell if I apply any more torque. I've generously doused the bolt with PB'laster to no avail. Is there anything else I could try?

QUOTE (blumontag @ Apr 27, 2014 - 3:31 PM)  Hectortherican - keep us updated, please! I am about to attempt to change my fuel filter (probably original from 94), so I'd like to hear how it goes. Thanks! Will do! It's extremely windy in Albuquerque right now, so I'm going to try one last time to torque the hell out of it (within reason) tomorrow morning. If not, I found a cheap electric impact wrench on craigslist that I'll fall back on. I suspect mine is also the original from '95, so you'll have the same experience.
