Quick Fuel Filter Queston
I'm having an extreme amount of trouble getting my fuel filter from a '92 Cx off. I read on another post that i should be turning right instead of left to loosen because the line is upside down or something. Is this true? Any comments or suggestions on getting this damn thing off would be greatly appreciated. I've tried pb blastin, taking off the gas cap, etc.... but nothing works.
* Note this is not my engine bay, its brewerhatch's, i'm just using it as a quick reference so i dont have to go take a pic of mine at 12am.

I thought it's always LEFTY when you're loosen up any bolt.
give this a shot...
you need a partner to help you out though.
Get a sturdy wrench with right size then have a your helper hold the fuel filter inplace so it wont more. Turn the wrench LEFT there it should break loose..if not try the other way RIGHT trun

the banjo bolt? turn it left like how you do all other bolts. also you will need a wrench to hold the filter down while trying to loosen the bolt. i believe a 18mm wrench not sure.

Not always true. PS puley bolts are reverse threaded.

Standard threads just do it like everyone else said, take like a 21mm wrench on the filter and a 17mm on the top of the bango bolt and twist,I just actually finished replacing mine a couple mins ago...haha
