My fuel filter didn't come off easy, but I finally got it. I don"t understand why some of the bolts on these older cars look fine and the others are all rusted out. The fuel filter looked like it was the original one. I got transmission filter done also. That's one messy job there. 8 qts. ended up being perfect for my refill. I took the level plug out and just a little bit ran out so I put it right back in. I think I'm caught up on all my maintenance work finally.
