    For the fuel fittings you need actual line wrenches. If you dont use them you'll probably strip something out. For the fuel pump, you just need a socket to fit the bango bolt (forgot what size) and an adjustable wrench to hold the filter itself.

    For line wrenches, I just went to Sears and bought the 5 or 7 piece set (The employees know them as "crows foot" wrenches sometimes) then added the one size it didn't come with which was the 19mm I think. Ended up costing like $50-$60. They haven't busted on me in the 3 years I've used them and if they do, they still have the good ol life time warrenty.

    for the line wrenches. just get a set at sears. They're great quality, and you'll use them for all kinds of things (other than just lines, they're just box end wrenches with a little section cut out for the line to fit through)

    Snap-On or Mac line wrenches due to the fact that the craftsman 17m is realy somewhere between 17mm and 11/16th's

    90% of all mehanic screw ups are due to use of the wrong tool, hence why I have WAYYYY more money invested into tools than all the cars I have built combined, heck I just bought a new torque wrench because I wore the old one out :shock:

    Wouldent it be cost efficient to get the sears set and just the 17mm fgrom snap on since there a bit steep in cost?

    I'm all for the right tool for the job but im also a chaep bitch when it dosent effect the end result.
