it's a stubborn SOB, but if memory serves me, it's regular.

its just really tight since its a flare fitting.

I would suggest using a flare wrench and then instead of pushing on it with all your might you shock it with a hammer or your hand.

It helps to keep the fuel filter bolted down so it doesn't move when you smack the wrench.

14mm

for future search references... make sure you screw the hard line in first before you mount the new fuel filter. i mounted it and then had to take it off because the hard line was a little too long to stick under the mounted filter.
