I was able to disconnect the banjo bolt by rotating the 17mm wrench counter-clockwise. Now I can’t do the same with the 14mm bolt located under the fuel filter compartment, even after spraying WD-40.
None of these guides state whether I should turn the bolt clock-wise or counter clockwise. Is there anything I should disconnect to remove the 14mm bolt?
BTW, these are tools at my disposal: https://i.imgur.com/nG5Skho.jpg

On the bottom of fuel filter there is a 19mm nut that the 14mm screws into. Use a 19mm wrench to hold the filter why you break the 14mm bolt loose

^um no there isn't, that's the top and it's a 17mm don't give advice if you're not 100%.


OP that bottom bolt is extremely hard to remove some times. I recommend PB blaster over WD-40 and let it sit a day. 2nd use a 14mm line/flare wrench not a conventional box end, good job on trying to do your own car work

Yeah I was able to get it loose. After examining various videos, it needed to be turned clockwise.

I also noticed it was best to put it back on, before re-attaching the triangular 10mm screws. Thanks for the responses. Again, main purpose of doing this was to see if I was capable of doing this on my own, and it turns out I can.

Thanks for the previous recommendation, B_Swapped. https://i.imgur.com/kTWAro4.jpg

Maybe I can put that 69+ dollars saved, towards an aftermarket radio.

Heads up to anyone looking to replace it themselves. I had to place WD-40 on the 14mm slot of the new fuel filter. I was afraid I'd have to return, since the screw of the fuel pipe would only go in a little bit.

A bit of shame on these guides for not mentioning such recommendation/requirement. I'll keep the PB blaster recommendation in mind.
