Gas Filter Spews...

What's the deal...I go to replace the filter on my 98, 150, 4.6 (thinking 10mins. work tops?) and 7 hours later I'm still spewing gas all over the place.

Apparently, the forward braided hose-lead left a bushing on the old filter...now what. The hose lead seems to be machined onto metal tubing. Is this replaceable? Can it be retrofitted w/something else?

Please help, I need some idea's on a fix...before I take a match...

Gushing Gas in Georgia,

CBB

Did you use the special tool for the replacement or just got a screwdriver and played around with it until it came off?
