So I was trying to change my Fuel Filter, this is the first time I have touched it since owning the car, But I guess the person who had the car before must have tried t change it but instead of using the proper tool he tried to pry if off? well I cant get the fuel line remover tool to release the line from the filter, Any body have an idea of what I can do?
 
Same thing happened to me. I went under there to change the filter and the retaining clips are not in the fuel lines on either side of the filter... WTF... also the fittings are all dented and bent. I think the previous owner/shop where it was taken removed the filter without using the removal tool because I just pulled the fuel line out of each side and there were no clips in the fuel line where they are supposed to be.

not to hijack, but I am in a similar situation and would like to know what to do to repair the fuel lines by the filter... do I need new fuel lines from front to rear?
