Fuel Filter - De-pressure Fuel Line
I am in the process of removing the head on my 2001 EX to replace the gasket.
1. I need to disconnect the fuel line. I believe the manual said that you can bleed the pressure down at the filter. Where is the filter? I have looked everywhere.
2. I have attached a picture of the mechanical connection on the fuel line. Is there a trick to disconnecting it? If have done this on American cars and have a tool but the connection is different. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Brandon

Re: Fuel Filter - De-pressure Fuel Line
Push the green tabs in and pull? Thats how I did it.
I also didn't relieve fuel pressure, so a little bit leaked out.. Oh well. No harm done.
nevertheless, early on in the HG change DIY guide is how to depressurize your fuel system.
