Nice killer! What size flat head did you use and how did you get it under the clamp?

Is that what a mechanic does to fix it too? Go do donuts in the parking lot to make the code go away :lol:

Apparently thats the secret they are not telling us. They just make you buy a bunch of parts pay for labor and then go bust some sweet donuts to fix the problem. Basterds!

Just go to O'reillys or an Autozone and tell them you need a fuel filter remover tool. They will know what you are talking about.

Finally got it off today and changed out. I had to buy the Lisle 35000 GM Flex Fuel Filter removal tool. I found it at O'reillys, Autozone had no clue what it was. It is the only tool I could get to fit and its made for it lol. I got it off in about two seconds with it. I swapped the filters and my check engine has gone off, so I'm guessing I found the culprit and fixed the problem.
