fuel filter...

I have two questions reguarding the fuel filter.

#1 How do i take the darn thing off? Do i just yank really hard or do i need some special tool?

#2 Why is there only one? From a quick glance it looked like it only filters the front tank, and the line from the rear just runs right by it!

1. Yes you have to have a special tool

2. yes it filters fuel coming from both tanks. You are probably seeing the return line, and that does not have a filter on it.

Thanks!

I'll have to take a trip down to Fair Auto and see if they have the tool to remove it. The thing is so old and rusted, i'm suprised it doesn't leak.
