Hello, I went to replace my fuel filter and the quick connect broke off in my hand. I can't get the filter off now. It seems to tight to get anything in there to click it out. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks
Some require a special disconnect tool other style which you may have could just be a piece of old plastic clip stuck which you can use a small pick tool to work it out

Hello Glen,
Well there are a few things it could be. I would start with taking the battery cables off and clean them as well as you can taking off the negitive cable 1st and putting it back on last after you clean them, Try that first see what happens if that don't work try the fuseable links by the starter and see if any one of those are burnt, Hard crispy or maybe even a wire came off, be careful if you find a wire loose not to touch any metal with it, and if you find one like that make sure your negitive cable is disconnected before going any further. Hope that help you out . Take care

there is a second fuel pump on the channel frame. It looks like a fuel filter but, if you look closely you will see the wires.

Go to parts store and purchase the tool to do it.

you can buy a cheap tool for doing it the tool is a little plastic collar that goes around the fuel line and slides into the connection and releases the spring holding it together I bought mine at the advance store cal-van tools # 684

You can use two small flathead screwdrivers. What you need to do first is the unclip the connection. Once you unclip it, you need to push in on the smaller side of the clip with a regular flat head screwdriver. When you push it in, you also have to try to push the hinged side clip in as well. The hinged side clip needs to be straightened out so the you can pull the filter pipe out. I found the easiest way to do this is to line the two opening up, and while I'm pushing on the smaller side of the clip, stick a small screwdriver on the backside and pry it out. It is a pain to do it without the special tool, it took me about 10-15 minutes to make pry the green "ring" off so that I could pull out the line.

With a rag positioned to catch any spilled fuel, disengage the retainer clip and remove the line
NOTE: The inline reservoir type fuel filter should last the left of the vehicle under normal driving conditions. If the filter does need to be replaced, proceed as follows:
