removing both is definitely best here. In the end, if your head gasket is really bad, its gonna need replacing.

It was funny for me. I was showing my brother my "progress" and in my best narrative voice said, "Now with 1 good push this should.....pop, fuel everywhere". The filter was so clogged that even after sitting for 24 hours with 1 side disconnected, there was still tons left in the annoying line.
