Re: Fuel Filter/seperator drain o-ring replacement...my first write up

I just did mine over lunch today.

The GPR is definitely in the way and loosening the wires coming off the driver's side was a must. I don't know if removing the battery cables is a necessity, but it's my practice when messing with electrical wires, so that's what I did.

The sensor coming off the intake collector was in the way for certain and was temporarily relocated.

All-in-all it took about as long to find the tools, remove the battery cables, re-connect the battery cables, put the tools away and wash up as it did to remove and re-install the o-rings.

Of course, getting the screws started was the single most lengthy part of the install since I left the surgical tubing at the house. Making certain they were properly torqued was the second.

Tape the bit into your 1/4" socket. You can get to the valley if you drop something, but who wants to be bothered.

I will not do this again. I will remove the stock fuel bowl before I have to do o-rings again.
