I took my car to the mechanic today to change the fuel filter. After 2 hours of work he says he still couldnt unscrew the lower nut (fuel intake?). Packed everything back the way it is. Any advice?
The nut is all battered from him trying to take it off but it still wouldn't budge. (It's a 7AFE btw) -------------------- You say you love flowers but you pick them, You say you love animals but you eat them, I fear the day you'll tell me you love me.

if your mechanic dont have a proper flare nut wrench to get that lower nut loose without destroying it, its time to find a new mechanic.
