The 17 open end wrench will fit on there but I want to purchase the special tool that goes on top of the fuel filter bolt (right one).

Does anyone know who makes one? Snap-on?

 

A google search came up with this:
http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog...=1440
I mave have to have that..
EDIT: it does not have a part number listed for it..thats strange..
I will ask my snap-on guy about this week..

I came across this also: http://www.etoolcart.com/index...D=697
That would come in handy..

 

Thanks for the link. There is no part # or possibility of ordering it from snap on. I guess it is discontinued?

Edit: I found this though.[*] http://www.etoolcart.com/brows....HTML - $23.55
[*] http://jcsonlinetoolshed.com/p.../223/ - $21.17

Already $2x.xx, I'd rather see how much a snap-on bling one is.

 

It is in the paper catalog as YA 8980.

 

hey man i am still....waiting for the 25 bucks you owe me. come on man i have been more than patient with you. i know that it was only like 55 bucks to ship it to me and you charged 100. so right there is a lot of extra money you got for the exhaust. did you send it yet? i am getting sick of having to bother you about this but i want what is owed to me. let me know what is going on. thanks

 

On what car are you changing the fuel filter on?

 

Just buy some crows feet

 

Snap-on calls it the double d socket for honda fuel filters.

 

use a 18mm i believe and air socket that beeyatch its same size as a lug nut

You can't, it won't fit on the bolt.

 

I bought the socket and it was easy to use. Thing came off like butter.

Pics will be coming in another thread.

 

i just used sockets and wrenchs...didnt know you need a special tool...

BTW&gt;
It is still avalible through Snap-On as a YA 8980.
I think it was around $35.00 though..
For the money,I am sure the OTC one will work just as well..

 

This worked for me.

 

Just use an open end socket wrench man.

Why spend so much money on a socket that you won't be able to use later.

I mean once you put a fuel pressure guage on there you will have to use an open wrench to tighten and loosen.

For me I use the 17mm wrench and I believe the welded nut on the fuel filter is an 19mm. It comes loose with a little encouragement.

 

This thing is the ****!!!! I'm ordering one right away.

interesting stuff, didnt know they actually made a socket for that. spending $20 on it though is a waste especially when you can just do it for free, may be $5.

 

am i missing something? i loosen the pressure relief bolt and then use a 17mm socket and 6" extension and just turn the bolt off...

 

You can't use a 17mm socket for this bolt.

 

how do you guys hold the actual filter still? when i tried to do it the whole thing flexed on the fire wall. it wasnt rigid enough for me to get enough force on it to break it loose.

 

Maybe use an open end wrench to hold the other side. I just let it flex till the bolt broke loose.

 

I think next time I replace the fuel filter will just get a fuel filter bolt from a DA. It has a normal 17mm hex head on it with the 12mm fuel vent (at least mine does). $20ish for the tool or $10 for the bolt
