How to change fuel filter? - 2003 explorer
32,000 miles on my 2003 Explorer and I want to change the fuel filter. I found the filter hidden behind a shield and I see that there are two styles of fittings. One looks like the type where a special tool is inserted around the tubing and into the fitting. The other two fittings look like there is some sort of red plastic keeper and I have no idea of what to do or what tool to use. Can anyone describe the tools and how they are used?
Thanks, Bob |

YOU CAN GET THE TOOL FOR ONE SIDE FORM A PARTS STORE AND THR RED CLIPS COME OFF WITH A SMALL SCREW DRIVER BUT WORD OF ADVICE PAY SOME ONE TO DOIT IT WILL TAKE THEM 10 MINUTES

Got the tool for one end - no problem, got a Chilton manual with detailed procedures and pictures for the two clips on other end - no problem. Oh, and I do have hoist in my garage which does make the job much easier.
Thanks for the responses, Bob |
