Probably was originally a 13mM, but yeah very severely rusted and the 1/2" popped on nice and tight right where it felt good. So I've been using that. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get under her this week.

I did however get the replacement hosing for the filler neck on the rear. The manager at CarQuest was nice enough to cut me a deal and sold me it for $1.59/in. They wanted $2.00 for it.
