Default feul filter install

You say its not hard and then say never heard of a fuel filter? Are you drunk?

It's not a spelling bee, no big deal. O2's are only difficult because the clips are a pain in the ***. Just follow the instructions on the link, you should have no problems.

Pass side O2 is the only hard one. Fuel Filter is a breeze unless it's rusted together.

its simple jack up the rear a little and you will need a quick-connect separator and 2 cresent wrenches make sure you take off the fuel cap. as already stated maybe 10 min.

It's infront of the Drivers side Rear Tire, up on the Body.. pretty easy. Bleed it first or it will squirt all over..

I assume you guys are talking about the O2's on Stock Manifolds.. with LT's they are cake..

If you take the gas cap off to release the pressure it will keep the spilling to a min.
