Howdy all,
I am finally able to put my home renovations aside and work on my GMC. Last year during my cross country trip I lost power as I neared my new home in Colorado. It was suggested that I replace my fuel filter.
Well, I tried to remove the filter today and was unable to loosen the nut holding the filter in. Picture is here: http://imgur.com/yYqZwLw . I have soaked it in penetrating oil, tried a flare nut wrench with a vise grip applied to the end to squeeze the wrench around the nut and then with the vise grips around the nut. I have been unable to loosen the nut, although the larger nut on the carburetor side is lose.
Any thoughts on how to get this lose?
