I need to swap out the fuel filter on my Talon. Anything to watch for when I remove it? I looking for any "Watch out for xxxx, you'll break the tube" kind of issues....
Is a Wix filter ($23) OK from NAPA? Or is this something better to get OEM? -------------------- 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD "The Black Golfball" How fast can a 14B go???

WIX filters are endorsed by Nascar and Nascar don't endorse no junk yaheeere?!
On the serious side of things, it's relatively hard the first time you do it but you'll get it. Try using combination (a wrench with one open end and one closed end) wrenches and lots of PB blaster if it wants to resist. -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"
