guys this is sad....but this damn 01 F150 fuel filter has me cursing ...spent 2 separate days trying to swap it out. Using the metal "special tool". The rear comes out pretty easy. The front side will NOT release from the filter. I believe the "teeth" inside are stuck. I have soaked the inside with lube. Is there a better way of releasing the line from the filter? Maybe a different tool works better ??? The tool I am using is the X looking metal tool.
