Nut size on top of fuel filter?
Anyone know the nut size on top of fuel filter canister? I am tired of using an adjustable wrench to take it off.

makes the job easy like it should be, just changed mine first time, 17k miles old was blackish color....... only trouble on reinstall I overtightened and squezed out the o ring so had to go through and taki it out and re priem again, some times it does not pay to try to put things back as tight as they seemed when you took them off. worked great leavin it loose and cycling the key on off and let the lift pump prime it, started right up, " feels stronger " and a lil more haze out back on wot

To avoid exactly the overtightening problem, I use the socket on a shorty ratchet. The handle is only 4" long. Hard to overtighten with only that much leverage.
